Eli Renfro killed his wife
With a long sharp bowie knife
Hacked her up and put her in the ground
Death by hanging was to be his fate
And old Eli filled with hate
Put a curse on the entire town
Chorus:
Can t you hear, can t you hear
When the moon is bright and clear
From time to time
It s old Eli dragging chains
And moaning peoples names
And I hope and I pray that he never thinks of mine
I was walking the high road late last night
The stars were out and the moon was bright
The wind was blowing you could hear for half a mile
Then an awful sound came through the trees
It chilled my blood and it shook my knees
The kinda thing that makes a man run wild
[ Chorus ]
Well if you get home before I do
Don t look back cause I m coming through
I m packing my things and I m headed far away
They say you can t run away from a curse
Maybe this time I ll be the first
Ain t nobody here gonna make me stay
Chorus -
(repeat: and I hope and I pray he never thinks of mine)
