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.....
