"Feel The Chill" lyrics

"Feel The Chill"

I used to stay down south of town
Where the road runs crooked and the lights are down
Where the sun is hit by the hills and the trees
And the moon runs full whenever it pleases

If you took the road up past the bend
An old house stood, dark as sin
It smelled like the devil and a woman's tongue
Untouched by the stars, untouched by the sun, now

Let's stop the wind
My lover lies down the hill
She won't get up, but she won't say nothin'
But baby I feel the chill

Let's stop the wind
My lover lies down the hill
She won't get up, but she won't say nothin'
But baby I feel the chill again

Well I was huntin' deer up past the rails
With a lamp and a knife and a rusty pail
I heard her voice, it was on the wind
So I followed it up on past the bend now

Well the light it shown in a window there
A woman, she stood, in her underwear
I asked her name and what was goin' on
She said, "I'd tell you son, but it's far too long
For I sing the words that I cannot speak
And if you listen now you'll find what your seekin'"

Well the song she sang held a truthful ring
But the truth just ain't what it used to mean
So I ran away and I drove to town
To drink my beer and to get on down now

Well my lover she came as the bar was closed
So we drove on out down that crooked road
But I flipped my truck on a half-bent turn
And my lover she flew like a broken bird

I heard her voice, it was on the wind
The song it sang held a truthful ring
But the truth just ain't what it used to mean
So I stumbled away through the grass so green

Let's stop the wind
My lover lies down the hill
She won't get up, but she won't say nothin'
But baby I feel the chill

Let's stop the wind
My lover lies down the hill
She won't get up, but she won't say nothin'
But baby I feel the chill

Let's stop the wind
My lover lies down the hill
She won't get up, but she won't say nothin'
But baby I feel the chill

Let's stop the wind
My lover lies down the hill
She won't get up, but she won't say nothin'
But baby I feel the chill again
