Cane Breaks

John Hiatt


I met a preacher down by the cane breaks
Sat there the devil right there at his side
Bolt of lightning struck that cane break
You should have seen the preacher jumpin' on back
Double dealers there hidin' in the bushes
Take the bait, boys, you're gonna get hurt
Before you drive it, I need my rental ???
Don't you want to take another look

Down at the cane breaks Down at the cane breaks
They're selling that snake oil jumping on a claimed stakes
Down by the cane break lines are being drawn
And the choc- and the chicken saw they're all gone
This ain't your name these ain't your people
What're you doing walking these woods
Cane and sickness blood and whiskey
Calling it progress and calling it good
Men of the cloth men of the ivories
Jimmy Lee Swaggart has got Jerry Lee shook
Down in Mississippi they're seeing double
God is the devil until you take another look

Down at the cane break Down at the cane break
The horse hooves pounding like a headache
Down at the cane break you can't buy a thrill
'cause you spent it all at matches under the hill

Ghosts are sleeping down at the cane break
and their hearts have turned to stone
And alligators, they're crying like babies
Past the bayou the ???
Before you cut through the heart of a nation
take your history books to town
Before the God and the glory go to their stations
Don't you wanna take another look around

Down at the cane breaks Down at the cane breaks
Men are shaking hands it's feeling like an earthquake
Down at the cane breaks cheaters getting torn
and those red white and blue babies are being born
