Trivia, story behind the song, etc.

Stillhouse Road.....My Mother's side of our family is from Altoona, PA.... and we grew up going to this farming community a lot as children and hearing stories of our great grandparents that lived up on" Blue Knob" near the town of Pavia, before Blue Knob was declared State Park land in the 1940's .and the stories that inspired this song were..... passed down to me.... from my mother Caroline ( Mowry) Lee and her second cousin Gerald Whysong ..... [1]

Lyrics

HIDING THE CONTRADICTIONS
DODGING THE PROHIBITION
BACK ON THE STILLHOUSE ROAD
YOU NEED A GRAIN FIRE
SPRING WATER FROM A DEEP WELL
BACK ON THE STILLHOUSE ROAD

I DOUBT THE MOONSHINE
WAS USED FOR COMMUNION WINE
BACK ON THE STILLHOUSE ROAD
GRANDPAS WHITE LIGHTENING
WOULD LEAVE YOU PINING
TO BE BACK ON THE STILLHOUSE ROAD
BACK ON THE STILLHOUSE ROAD

PIONEER OF A LOST KIND
A LITTLE MONEY FOR THE BAD TIMES
BACK ON THE STILLHOUSE ROAD
WORKED THE LAND NOT A COAL MINE
BROOD OF CHILDREN AND A GOOD WIFE
BACK ON THE STILLHOUSE ROAD

MAYBE THE MOONSHINE
WAS USED FOR COMMUNION WINE
BACK ON THE STILLHOUSE ROAD
GRANDPAS WHITE LIGHTENING
WOULD LEAVE YOU PINING
TO BE BACK ON THE STILLHOUSE ROAD
BACK ON THE STILLHOUSE ROAD

TOOK YOUR LAND FOR A FAIR PRICE
MADE YOU SIGN ON A FINE LINE
BACK ON THE STILLHOUSE ROAD
BUT THE MAPLESUGARS AND THE GRAPEVINES
THE FRUIT TREES AND THE WOODPILE
WERE BACK ON THE STILLHOUSE ROAD

IF ONLY THEY KNEW
ALL IT COST YOU
BACK ON THE STILLHOUSE ROAD
PICTURES AND MEMORIES
ARE ALL THAT'S LEFT YOU
BACK ON THE STILLHOUSE ROAD
BACK ON THE STILLHOUSE ROAD
