Lyrics
Fox Fire
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Caught in the middle of a moonbeam
A flicker of light
I took a look and then it run away
Back on into the night, oh.
Stopped, stopped in the tickin' of my heartbeat
A look in his eye
Had the hunger of a mountain lion
And the thunder in fire
And every time he appears it comes as a surprise
He thinks he's clever as foxfire
Dancin' on a distant rise
Then when I catch that devil, ooh
There's gonna be a slow-down; There's gonna be a mighty slow-down.
Caught in the embers of my night fire
In the cracklin' and glow
I get to feeling he's a-watching me
Somewhere there in the cold
And one of these days I'm thinking I'll take him by surprise
He's not so clever as foxfire, dancing on the distant rise
And when I catch that devil, ooh.
There's gonna be a slow-down; There's gonna be a mighty slow-down.
