T.V.A. had a way to clear it off fast
Lots of men and machinery build a dam and the rest

Uncle Frank lived the park, down on Cedar Creek
Bought fifteen acres when he got home from overseas
Fifteen rocky acres, figured no one else would
all that backed up water had to have some place to go

And the price of all that power kept on going straight
And banks around the hollow for lake-front property
Where doctors, lawyers, and musicians teach their kids to ski

Uncle Frank couldnt read or
So was no note or letter found where he died
Just a rope his neck
And the kitchen table turned on its
