Two feets they come a creepin'
Like a black cat do And two bodies are lyin' naked Creeper think he got nothin' to lose So he creeps into this house, yeah And unlocks the door And while a man reaching for his trousers Shoots him full of .38 holes (Chorus) Its a Saturday night special Got a barrel that's blue and cold Ain't no good for nothin' But put a man six feet in a hole Big Jim's been drinkin' whiskey And playing poker on a losin' night Pretty soon, Big Jim starts a thinkin' Somebody been cheatin' and lyin' So Big Jim commences to fightin' I wouldn't tell you no lie And Big Jim done grab his pistol Shot his friend right between the eyes (Chorus) Hand guns are made for killin' Ain't no good for nothin' else And if you like your whiskey You might even shoot yourself So why don't we dump 'em people To the bottom of the sea Before some fool come around here Wanna shoot either you or me |

I'm just a city boy
But there's a small town side to me And I feel it closin' in Are we too blind to see That she's die-in' more each day And she's cryin' out to you and me Chance is comin' when thier gone They curse a fool who waits too long So lets take care of what we have Before the good we know goes bad And the beauty fades and just slips away The dirty air and the die-in' seas Will this be the world we leave To the wild and young And say just look at what we've done And right before our eyes Today's yesterday, could be tomorrow's goodbye Here comes the rain. it might wash her tears away But it doesn't change a thing Like my brother before me All I can do is write this song and for her I sing Chance is comin' when we're gone They carve in stone what we've done wrong So lets take care of what we have Before the good we know goes bad And the beauty fades and just slips away The dirty air and the die-in' seas Will this be the world we leave To the wild and young And say just look at what we've done And right before our eyes Today's yesterday could be tomorrow's goodbye Do you ever think about the future or the past Do you ever wonder how long this world will last..... So let's take care of what we have Before the good we know goes bad And the beauty fades and just slips away The dirty air and the die-in' seas Will this be the world we leave To the wild and young And say just look at what we've done And right before our eyes Now it's right before our eyes Today's yesterdaaay.......... will be tomorrow's goooodbye |

Way down yonder you can hear the wind blow
Through the tall grass growing in the old bayou The old bayou There's a dark haired woman that looks so fine Wearing hand me down clothes, drinking homemade wine No one ever knew who her daddy was The people down here say it's all because She's the daughter of the devil, the sister of a snake The keeper of souls down on Vodoo Lake There's a city boy across the county line Came looking for the legend of the girl so fine Well the stories that he heard, well they had to be lies But he found out different when he looked inher eyes Well he tried to run away but she had control He's findin' out now what everybody knows He knew it was over when she started to shake Now there's one more soul down on Voodoo Lake There's an eerie silence at the break of dawn A chill in the air, something wrong When a shadow crosses the ground Those long lost souls never make a sound You'd think by now they'd realize She'll never break her bayou ties She's the daughter of the devil, the sister of a snake The keeper of souls down on Voodoo Lake Voodoo Lake, Voodoo Lake Daughter of the Devil, sister of a snake Voodoo Lake Down on Voodoo Lake, Down on Voodoo Lake You can see her down on Voodoo Lake |

Big wheels keep on turning,
Carry me home to see my kin Singing songs about the southland. I miss ole bamy once again and I think it's a sin. Well, I heard Mister Young sing about her. Well, I heard ole Neil put her down. Well, I hope Neil Young will remember A southern man don't need him around anyhow. * Sweet home Alabama where the skies are so blue. Sweet home Alabama, Lord, I'm coming home to you. In Birmingham they love the Gov'nor. Now we all did what we could do. Now Watergate does not bother me. Does your conscience bother you, tell the truth. Repeat * (Solo) Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers And they ve been known to pick a song or two. Lord, they get me off so much, They pick me up when I'm feeling blue, now how about you. Repeat *(twice) |

If I leave here tomorrow Would you still remember me? For I must be travelling on, now, 'Cause there's too many places I've got to see. But, if I stayed here with you, girl, Things just couldn't be the same. 'Cause I'm as free as a bird now, And this bird you can not change. Lord knows, I can't change. Bye, bye, its been a sweet love. Though this feeling I can't change. But please don't take it badly, 'Cause Lord knows I'm to blame. But, if I stayed here with you girl, Things just couldn't be the same. Cause I'm as free as a bird now, And this bird you'll never change. And this bird you can not change. Lord knows, I can't change. Lord help me, I can't change. |
