Oh the werewolf, oh the werewolf
|
Comes a steppin' along
|
He don't even break the branches
|
Where he's been gone
|
|
You can hear his long holler from away 'cross the moor
|
That's the holler of a werewolf when he's feelin' poor
|
|
He goes out in the evenin' when the bats 're on the wing
|
An' he's 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 don't even break the branches
|
Where he's been gone
|
|
For the werewolf have pity, not fear, an' not hate
|
'Cause the werewolf might be someone that you've known of late
|
|
Oh the werewolf, oh the werewolf
|
Comes travelin' along
|
He don't even crush the leaves
|
Where he's been gone
|
