Lyrics
Once in Kentucky
Twice in Tennessee
Three times in Texas
You haunted me
Down from smoky mountains
Lurking in the grass
Burning up mesquite
You fill my hourglass
My hourglass
A silhouette
A charcoal shape
Your shadow falls
It's like a cape
You leave a trail
And in your wake
I try and fail
To pull up stakes
A lonesome bank in Houston
A Memphis hardware store
A restaurant in Nashville
Places we meet no more
We meet no more
I see you at night
You come without a sound
White linen moon casts you around
A silhouette
A charcoal shape
Your shadow falls
It's like a cape
You leave a trail
And in your wake
I try and fail
To pull up stakes
A silhouette
A charcoal shape
Your shadow falls
And it's like a cape
Once in Kentucky
Twice in Tennessee
Three times in Texas
You haunted me
