Devils Fog
where did you say you're from?
south Dakota or freezing New York?
I ain't got a dime to spare you,
but I'll offer you a ride on my wagon.
you better not be staying here long,
have you heard the humours about
the fog?
thick as night on a bright sunny
spot,
mutilated cattles but not a single
drop of blood!
and then we have those ghostly
shucks!
for centuries these parts have no
history of red eyes coyotes,
and what about those eerie lights
hovering at devils arc,
too steep for any mortal man to
climb and mess around.
if you're new in these part of town,
wait no more and get the hell out
fast,
no one here gonna take your word,
even if you say you saw Elvis here!
I'll be Damm if you live to see the
next day,
and now sunny what did you say
your name was?
my mommy used to warned me not
to pick up strangers,
she used to say they could be the
red eye demons.
why just last week my neighbour
jimmy,
got his neck snaped back like dried
old sticks,
and he's 6 foot 300 pound massive
fellow!
rumours had it that he pick up
some stranger in these woods
say I forgot to ask you something
boy,
just where are you heading to?
oh shucks and what ill time to have,
here comes those Damm thick fog
now.....
