Song Lyrics

Board the Night Train

Board the Night Train

Climb aboard the night train


Devil in the Woods

When the hour is late
In the mountain state
In the thick of the wood
Devil up to no good

Echoed through the hollow
Is the profane sound
Drums and stomping
Shaking loose the rocky ground

If you follow that glow
in the hot dead old trees
The wind carries the rhythm of
Sharp knee slapping in the breeze

If you follow that sign
That red, smokey trail
The devil plays the chords real sharp
With his black ‘ol pointy tail

The devil’s in the woods
On an Appalachian night
Gathering up the ‘billies
And dancin’ in the fire light
Nick jumps high
Blows a whisky jug low
Makes the billies dance
Shout out loud and do-si-do

The devil’s in the woods
On an Appalachian night
Gathering up the ‘billies
And dancin’ in the fire light
Nick jumps high
Blows a whisky jug low
Makes the billies dance
Shout out loud and do-si-do

Let me tell ya that
The Devil’s got me dancin’
Got me up to no good
Shifting in the bushes
Deep inside the county wood

Cracking and stomping
On the twigs and the switches
Cackling and romping
Swinging with the country witches

That devil’s gaze then turns
Horns point straight at me
His eyes blaze and burns
Deep inside the country trees

That devil breaks out his great big book
Wants me to sign my name
Listed on the page the souls he took
Guarantees all of them fortune and fame

Promises me my wildest dreams
If I take a chance
I says...I says...
Well Hell no devil!
I’m just here to dance, waw!

The devil’s in the woods
On an Appalachian night
Gathering up the ‘billies
And dancin’ in the fire light
Nick jumps high
Blows a whisky jug low
Makes the billies dance
Shout out loud and do-si-do

The devil’s in the woods
On an Appalachian night
Gathering up the ‘billies
And dancin’ in the fire light
Nick jumps high
Blows a whisky jug low
Makes the billies dance
Shout out loud and do-si-do


What’s Underneath

So you think you know that guy
living right next door
Oh he seems so nice
but there’s just something more

There’s a gleam in his eye.
There’s a shine on his teeth
And it’s all just a mask to
Cover what’s underneath

Open up the horrors
The macabre garage
He’s an artist with a saw
Making a bone collage

Bodies hang from hooks
Over graveyard stones
The floor sprayed red
With red blood tones

Yeah you see his hands are dirty
When he smiles and waves
But It ain’t from his garden
Its from plottin’ out graves

Yes, there’s another face
There’s another side
Its twisted
Its demented
Its so easy to hide

When he works late at night
No He doesn’t make a sound
Cause he don’t want no attention
Haulin’ coffins around

Open up the horrors
The macabre garage
He’s an artist with a saw
Making a bone collage

Bodies hang from hooks
Over graveyard stones
The floor sprayed red
With red blood tones

Oh there’s another face
Yes there’s another side
Its twisted
Its demented
Its so easy to hide

There’s a gleam in his eye
There’s a shine on his teeth
And its all just a mask to
Cover what’s underneath


Broken Bones

When class starts up
I’m payin’ close attention
To the details on my drawin’
Not my math or readin’ lesson

Oh man If I could look Like
what I drew back in class
I’d be the raddest lookin’ dude
And I would look bad ass

If I break my bones
Don’t put ‘em back together
If my face rips off
It’s only for the better
Cause I’d rock my skull
And that would look wicked cool

If my head’s on fire
With the flames an’ the swirls
Then I’d melt the hearts
Of the ghouls and the girls
And then I’d be that guy
That just looks so wicked cool

Just like I drew back in school

If you give me stitchin’
Please just make it look real bitchin’
Though you might find me fright’nin
But find it real excit’in
Cause there ain't no time for messin’
With my math or readin lesson
Cause there ain't no time for learnin’
while I draw this skull a-burnin’

If I break my bones
Don’t put ‘em back together
If my face rips off
It’s only for the better
Cause I’d rock my skull
And that would look wicked cool

If my head’s on fire
With the flames an’ the swirls
Then I’d melt the hearts
Of the ghouls and the girls
And then I’d be that guy
That just looks so wicked cool

Just like I drew back in school

1234 pencil paper blood and gore let’s go!

If I break my bones
Don’t put ‘em back together
If my face rips off
It’s only for the better
Cause I’d rock my skull
And that would look wicked cool

If my head’s on fire
With the flames an’ the swirls
Then I’d melt the hearts
Of the ghouls and the girls
And then I’d be that guy
That just looks so wicked cool

Just like I drew back in school


Big Mean & Green

People stop and scream

Big and green

When I come to town
People stop and scream

Big and green
Green and mean
When I come to town

Armies try to blast me

And I don’t hear no screamin’
So I’ gonna get my friends
And we’re gonna do this one more time
With feeling

Big and green
Green and mean
When we come to town
People stop and scream

Big and green.
Green and mean
If you stop to glance

Girls of the Moon

Out walkin’ one night
I got beamed with a light
It took me to two ladies
That were just out of sight

They were green, good lookin’
And had one big old eye
They said babe you need a ride
And then we took to the sky

Oh yeah I’m rockin’ on a rocket I’m
Moon walkin’ and dancin’ in slow time
New man on the moon is doin’ just fine
Green girls of the moon can show a good time

Oh yeah I’m rockin’ on a rocket I’m
Moon walkin’ and dancin’ in slow time
On the dark side they glow a groovy neon lime
Green girls of the moon can show a good time

Woah

Yeah I just had a taste
Of that big outer space
And those girls they left me just wanting more
So I stole that ship
And kindly gave ‘em the slip
To boldly go Where no man has gone before

Oh yeah my next stop on planet one
The hot girls livin’ right up by the sun
Thing are shaking
and things are getting’ kinda sweaty
Cause those Mercury girls
Will rock your world like Freddie

Movin’ on to the most lovely of the tour
Venus ladies will make your heavy spirit soar
Don’t need no trap
To keep me on the dance floor
You gotta love
Those cute girls from next door

Yeah the maidens of Mars
Really shred on guitars
Those babes they play those six strings like its war
When I pick up my axe
They blast with sonic attacks
All together on the count-in of 4

There’s the Jupiter girls
They’re some big galactic women
They give a big wet kiss, man
Best prepare to go swimmin’

And those Saturn ladies
They want a ring around their finger
If you don't wanna get caught, man
Then you’d better not linger

Shootin’ farther way out to planet eight
The Neptune ladies get real excited for a date
They dress in blue
And always shine up real nice
Cause you don’t get much lovin’
when you’re made of ice

The girls of Pluto are feelin’ small
And kinda sore
People sayin’ they ain’t a planet no more
Do my best to show them that they belong
So I‘m gonna include ‘em in this rockin’ song

I gotta watch out for girls
From that Planet X
They're hiding out
To stab me right in the chest

So I gotta get home
Back where I’m safe again
Cause those goldilocks girls
Do Love their guitar men


Spirit Rider

Spirit rider
Born from the flame
Gallops through the night
Bringing vengeance and blame

Spirit rider
Kicks up the sand
Dealing out his justice
With his skeleton hand

Spirit rider
Born from the fears
Of the sadness and the sorrow
And the long trail of tears

Spirit rider
Frees from the cage
With his bones stained red
From the blood of his rage

Chop chop

Spirt Rider
Hears his people’s cries
Seeking out the guilty
With them fire lit eyes

Spirit rider
On a shadow black horse
Death is served nightly
With no thought of remorse

Spirit rider
Never can rest
With the Murder and hatred
Drove his people out West

Spirit rider
Will make you feel the pain
When his hot red fury
Pulls the skin from your brain

Chop chop

When blood has been spilled...
And justice is served...
And vengeance is done...
He looks to the West...
And rides into the sun...


Black Magic

Dance before the fire
Let the music flow through
Innocent and sweet
She’s so clever and true

White dress skirts the floor
She laughs and spins around
A shadow is approaching
Slinking closer with the sound

Black magic
Blacks out the light
Black magic
Turns day to night
Black magic
Spell is the spark
Black magic
Brings her to the dark

Dance before the fire
Temptation shines new
From Innocent to thief
Darkness fixated on you

Black dress skirts the floor
Doll-like skin contrast
Black hair eyes and lips
Black hearts beat at last

Black magic
Blacks out the light
Black magic
Turns day to night
Black magic
Spell is the spark
Black magic
Brings her to the dark

Black magic has set her free
It draws her closer to me

Black magic
Blacks out the light
Black magic
Turns day to night
Black magic
Spell is the spark
Black magic
Brings her to the dark

Darkness has fallen for you


Old Mine

When I’s a young man
never did what I’s told
Till I met a rich man
Said son You gotta go West
For gold

I packed up my bag
Not much to my name
Stowed away on that old box car
Ended up West
With even less
‘Cept for this here dang ‘ol guitar

Pannin’ for gold
Started gettin’ real old
After one week in that damn sun

From the dried up stream
I spied a cave nice n cold
So I picked on my boots and I run

With just a little light
I took in the site
Of gold
From ceiling to floor

Lord pitied me
And I staked my claim
With a “keep out” sign on the door

I boarded it her up
And I boarded me in
Nothin’ but time on my hands

Pickin’ out all the
Gold in the walls
And keepin’ a claim on my lands

This gold in this mine
And so’s this old mine
Nobody gets in but they’ve tried

The gold in this mine
And so’s this old mine
Even since the day that I died

Mister Jack Lantern

Mister Jack Lantern

It’s time for Halloween witches

Mister Jack Lantern is coming your way
When the sun goes down
It’s his time of day

With a bright, twisted face
And a crooked smile
His eyes light the way
While he walks with style

His feet are tip a toe-in'
Ca-reepin' down the street
Mister Jack Lantern
On a spooky Trick-or-Treat

Gimme’ some candy baby
Oooh that’s sweet

He doesn't need a bag
To gather all his sweets
He pops open his head
And dumps them in to eat

When the candy’s all gone
And before he’s gonna’ split
He’s gonna’ find a sweet ghoul
And get his candle lit

His feet are tip a toe-in'
Ca-reepin' down the street
Mister Jack Lantern
On a spooky Trick-or-Treat

Let me find that sweet ghoul
And get my candle lit
Ha ha ha
