Five Man Electrical Band - Werewolf lyrics

rate me

Mama said, there's

Something weird bout Billy

I looked in his room, his bed

Wasn't slept in at all last night

But Papa said, ah, now Mama

Don't you go talking silly

He's just a young boy

He's just sowing his wild oats

And that's all right

But Mama said, no

There's something real

Strange bout my Billy

The farmer down the road said he

Lost a few of his sheep last night

I know he's my own flesh and blood

But he makes my blood run chilly

Cause I saw him from my window

And he was on the heel

Just screaming at the moonlight

Is it any wonder we hate

To see the sun go down

And is it any wonder we hate to

See the full moon coming around

So Papa said, I guess there's

Only one thing to do bout Billy

Hand me down my gun, son

Bring along that silver dinner bell

But Mama said, Papa

I beg you, don't kill him

Cause I just couldn't bear to

Think about my baby in Hell

But he went down to the blacksmith

Got him out of bed and said

Get your fire hot

Oh, shut up your shutters

And close down the doors

We're gonna need all the heat you got

Cause I want you to melt my

Silver bell down to a single shot

I got a job to do and I got to get it

Done before the sun comes up

Oh, so is it any wonder that we

Hate to see the sun go down

Then we heard a shot

And I said, Papa got em

Then we heard a scream and Mama

Smiled and said, betcha Billy got em

But when I lifted up my eyes, there was

Papa in the doorway staring at the floor

And my big brother Billy never did

Come home no more

Is it any wonder we hate

To see the sun go down

And is it any wonder we hate to

See the full moon coming around<br />
