lyrics

When the tar black night pulls the full moon out
And the fog rolls into the trees
We'll be dancing where the shadows collide
I'll take you down there
Down the ravine.

Tell your mama that you're gonna be out all night
Tell your daddy not to intervene
Tell your sister that she better be ready to ride
Ain't no taxis down the ravine.

And the wind will yowl
And the ground will growl
And the wolves will howl
Can you hear it?

There are stories of orgies of darkness and light
Of the sainted and the obscene.
Where the souls get sold to the devil's delight.
He comes collectin' down the ravine.

Tell your mama you gotta go wander
Tell your daddy you wanna be free
Gonna play with impiety yonder
And taste the midnight down the ravine.

"Dark Americana 2: Mohave" reflects the desert: dark folk, rustic, dangerous, in ruins and foreboding; breathing hallucinatory American mythology.
