Happy man, father of four
A life and wife everyone adored
A house up on the hill
The American dream fulfilled
Til one day he disappeared to the woods
Left his family and life all for good
No note no trace, with out a sound
He was found dead by the hounds
The wife was brought for questioning
And the kids were asking "what's happening?"
By the way no one was answering
They'd never feel a hurt like this again
Daddy's dead and they don't know why
The kids began to scream and cry
Gonna wonder for the rest of their lives
What in the hell had happened that night
Don't get too curious you fools
Wouldn't wanna wind up found dead too
I guess we'll never know
The secret died with him off Bishop Road
The second eldest of his four
Always wanted to find out more
The police report had too many holes
So she dove down the rabbit hole
One loose string lead to another
She got mixed up with some real bad brothers
Took her out before she had the chance
To prove that it wasn't all an accident
They took her out there to the woods
About a mile from where her dad last stood
Just another tragedy
Is what they hoped that the media would see
The daughter's dead and they don't know why
Mamma began to scream and cry
Gonna wonder for the rest of her life
What in the hell had happened that night
Don't get too curious you fools
Wouldn't wanna wind up found dead too
I guess we'll never know
The secret died with her off Bishop Road
Bishop Road
Somewhere out there they run free
And I hope they don't hear the songs I sing
I've got a lot more life to go
But my truck just broke down on Bishop Lake Road
