Paroles de la chanson The Legend Of Wooley Swamp :
If you ever go back into Wooly Swamp son you better not go at night



There's things out there in the middle of them woods



That'd make a strong man die from fright



There's things that crawl and things that fly



And things that creep around on the ground



And they say the ghost of Lucias Clay gets up and it walks around







[Refrain]



But I couldn't believe it, I just had to find out for myself



And I couldn't conceive it, I never would listen to nobody else



No I couldn't believe it, I just had to find out for myself



That there's some things in this world you just can't explain







The old man lived in the Wooly Swamp way back in the gurgling woods



And he never did do a lot of harm in the world



But he never did do no good



People didn't think too much of him



They all thought he acted funny



The old man didn't care about people anyway



All he cared about was his money



He'd stuff it all down in Mason jars and bury it all around



But on certain nights if the moon was right



He'd dig it up out of the ground



He'd pour it all out on the floor of his shack



And run his fingers through it



Old Lucias Clay was a greedy old man



And that's all there ever was to it







[Refrain]







The Crayton boys were white trash they lived over on Parvis Creek



They were a real snake and sneaky as a cat



And belligerent when they'd speak



One night the oldest brother said ya'll meet in the Wooly Swamp later



We'll get old Lucias' money and we'll pitch him to the alligators



They found the old man out in the back with a shovel in his hand



And thirteen rusty Mason jars he just dug up out of the sand



And they all went crazy and they beat the old man



Then they picked him up off the ground



Then they threw him in the swamp and they stood there and laughed



Till the black water sucked him down



Then they turned around and went back to the shack



And they picked up the money and ran



But they hadn't gone nowhere when they realized



They were running in quicksand



And they struggled and screamed but they couldn't get away



Then just before they were gone



They could hear that old man laughing



In a voice that was loud and strong







Now that's been fifty years ago an' if you go back by there again



There's a spot in the yard in back of that shack



Where the ground is always wet



And on certain nights if the moon is right



And you're down by the dark footpath



You can hear three young men screaming



And you can hear that old man laugh







Repeat verse 1







[Refrain]...
