Dirty Stash

[Verse] On a dusty old shelf in a corner store, Sat a beat-up box we all ignored. Inside were secrets of a life long past, Bound and tied to a dirty stash. [Verse 2] Grandpa's letters from the war he'd fought, Yellowed pages, tales he forgot. A silver locket holding Mama's smile, A life in pieces, each mile by mile. [Chorus] In that dirty stash, stories untold, Hidden treasures, worth more than gold. Lives that crossed and hearts that clashed, All wrapped up in a dirty stash. [Verse 3] Found a faded picture of a rodeo, Daddy riding hard, putting on a show. A broken spur from his favorite boots, Memories buried in those ol' roots. [Verse 4] Ticket stubs from the county fair, Ma and Pa dancing as if no one's there. A crumpled napkin with a poem inside, Love that's lasted, never died. [Chorus] In that dirty stash, stories untold, Hidden treasures, worth more than gold. Lives that crossed and hearts that clashed, All wrapped up in a dirty stash.
