Prayin' real hard that we wouldn't make a sound
Oh my god, Tom, who are we gonna tell?
I know a secret that I just can't tell
Over in the bushes and on to the right
Tossed in the bodies, let 'em sink on down
I know a secret that I just can't tell
Where they say it got no bottom, say it take you down to hell
Sheriff John Brady and deputy hedge
Know who put the bodies in the wishin' well
I know a secret down at uncle Tom's cabin
I know a secret that I just can't tell
Neither one believing what the other could see
Come two men talkin' in the pale moon light
Haulin' two limp bodies down to the water's edge
I know a secret down at uncle Tom's cabin, oh yeah
Unless you wanna wind up in the wishin' well too
I know a secret that I just can't tell, oh
Out on a Cypress limb above the wishin' well
Yeah, soon as they were gone me and Tom got down
I know a secret down at uncle Tom's cabin
I know a secret that I just can't tell
I know a secret down at uncle Tom's cabin, oh yeah
Where the full moon shines through the roof tile cracks
Keep your mouth shut that's what we're gonna do
Running through the woods back to uncle Tom's shack
I know a secret down at uncle Tom's cabin, oh yeah, yeah
To the bottom of the well where they'd never be found
Know who put the bodies
The sheriff he belongs in a prison cell
I know a secret down at uncle Tom's cabin
I know a secret down at uncle Tom's cabin
They didn't see me and Tom in the trees
