The Werewolf Song — текст песни (Cat Power)

( michael hurley / live )



Oh the werewolf, oh the werewolf

Comes a steppin along

He dont even break the branches

Where hes been gone



You can hear his long holler from away cross the moor

Thats the holler of a werewolf when hes feelin poor



He goes out in the evenin when the bats re on the wing

An hes killed some young maiden before the birds sing



For the werewolf, for the werewolf

Have sympathy

cause the werewolf he is someone

Just like you an me



Once I saw him in the moonlight when the bats were a flyin

All alone I saw the werewolf and the werewolf was cryin



Cryin nobody, nobody, nobody knows

How much I love the maiden as I tear off his cloths

Cryin nobody, nobody, knows of my pain

When I see it has risen that full moon again



When I see that moon movin through the clouds in the sky

I get a crazy feelin an I wonder why



Oh the werewolf, oh the werewolf

Comes travelin along

He dont even break the branches

Where hes been gone



For the werewolf have pity, not fear, an not hate

cause the werewolf might be someone that youve known of late



Oh the werewolf, oh the werewolf

Comes travelin along

He dont even crush the leaves

Where hes been gone
