Rusty Hinge from Striking Fire by The Shoaldiggers

(chorus)
When I get home tonight I got to oil that hinge
I'm goin to oil that hinge tonight
When I get home tonight I'm goin to oil that hinge
I got to oil that hinge just right

All last night the wind kept blowing
That barn door shut and that barn door open
That old rusty hinge started squealing and squeaking
Sound like chrome scraping metal
Like the Devil was speaking my name

All last night the wind kept blowing
That barn door shut and that barn door open
That old rusty hinge started squeaking and squealing
The hairs on my neck got that fingernail blackboard feeling

(chorus)

Keep a can of Kroil Penetrating Oil on the nightstand by your bed
Too much of a good thing can rub you wrong and turn you red
A drop or two will do to take the squeak out of your hinge
I keep a lifetime supply for when she starts to squeak again

All last night the wind kept blowing
That barn door shut and that barn door open
That old rusty hinge started squealing and squeaking
In fiery forked tongue sermon
The Devil was speaking my name

(chorus)

All last night the wind kept blowing
That barn door shut and that barn door open
That old rusty hinge started squealing and squeaking
Sound like chrome scraping metal
Like the Devil was speaking my name
