Devil Moon

Devil moon

Shows its face too soon at a hopeless time

Fast old road

Shut down in the winter cold at a quiet time

Threw out my back

Tending another crack on the picket line

The sweetest wind blows

Through my darling’s clothes when I’m inside

I can feel the seasons change, like I’m to blame

My industry has stretched to the pieces I’ve been holding

For the devil moon

Has eclipsed all I see, eclipsed all I see

And under its lights it may prove to be the killer of me

Cat got your tongue

When you’re leading a victory song at a quiet time

And it’s a bad race won

And a punctured lung at the starting line

I can feel the seasons change, like I’m to blame

My industry has stretched to the pieces I’ve been holding

For the devil moon

Has eclipsed all I see, eclipsed all I see

The devil moon

Has eclipsed all I see, eclipsed all I see

The devil moon

Has eclipsed all I see, all I see

And under its lights it may prove to be the killer of me
