We were honored to be selected as Official Showcase Artists for the 2026 Your Roots are Showing Conference in Belfast, Ireland. Ireland has a strong story-telling folk tradition. Irish immigrants left their mark on Western NC, which is where Jodi grew up. So, for this showcase, we wanted to share with Northern Ireland one of our own NC Appalachian stories through song: the story of Frankie Silver. Frankie was one of the first women to ever be hanged by the State, right in the county where Jodi grew up (Burke County). We wanted to tell a little more about her side of the story... Verse 1: It's July in Burke County, it must be 90 degrees The floorboards of the gallows creak beneath her feet Frankie squints into the crowd, she can make out every face They remind her of the folks who gathered on her wedding day Standing in her best dress, and Charlie dressed in black The priest asked them how long will this love last Will you… Chorus: Take it the grave, take it to the grave, In sickness, health, and when hard times come your way Will you take it to the grave? Verse 2: Seasons came and went, now there’s another mouth to feed Charlie falls through the door again, smelling of whiskey Baby Nancy on her hip, she’s lived this scene before He waves gun, cocks his fist, nods off on the floor Blood dripping from her lips, her eye blue and black Runs to her Mama’s, swears she’s never going back Mama says... Chorus: He’ll take you to the grave, take you to the grave Now it ain’t just you, there’s another life to save He’ll take you to the grave Verse 3: Charlie went out hunting, never came back home They tell the town he ran off, left Frankie all alone But that ash and bone in her hearth has a different story to tell That blood under the floorboards sent Frankie off to jail The trial was swift, the judge all dressed in black A jury of his peers said she’d hang for her evil act Now go... Chorus: Take her to the grave, take her to the grave She’s a guilty soul, no one else to blame Take her to the grave Bridge: That hangman’s noose is tied Tight around her throat Speak, now’s the time Unburden your soul As she starts to speak, a voice screams It won’t change anything Take it to the grave Take it to the grave Take it to the grave Chorus: Take it to the grave, take it to the grave Close your eyes now, girl, be brave And take it to the grave Take it to the grave Outro: It's July in Burke County, she can’t escape the heat The floorboards of the gallows give way beneath her feet
