[Verse One]
Never whistle at night
Beware of the woman in white
When in the woods leave no trace
Don’t turn around when you hear your name
Never look up in the trees
Don’t answer voices in the breeze
Haints roll in on the evening fog
Be weary of that whimpering dog
[Pre-Chorus]
Appalachian mountains keep the dead
Familiar voices in your head
Darkness comes and the spirits come out
Trust your intuition don’t sing or shout
[fiddle solo]
[Chorus]
Wooooo mmmm mmmm ooooh
Appalachian spirits make your blood run cold
Ooooh oh mmmm mmmm ooooh
Don’t let them in or touch your soul
Lock the door
Draw the blinds
Ignore them voices within your mind
When they come knocking don’t let them in
Three times coming they stay out while you stay in
Oooohh oooh woah
Leave them demons….
Well enough alone!
[Fiddle solo]
[Verse Two]
If you see something you can’t explain
Don’t look twice it is all in vein
Leave no trace don’t disturb the bones
If nightfall finds you ignore the moans
Screams in the dark just keep walkin
If it follows you don’t start talkin
Trust the sudden silence it happens for a reason
Get yourself indoors in any season
[Bridge]
Appalachian folklore comes with a side of truth
If you see it, then it surely can see you
Stay on the path never tread unknown trails
Beware of the woman in white especially if she wails
[Chorus]
Woooooh mmmmmm mmmm ooooh
Things in the dark in the Appalachian cold
Whoooh mmmmm mmmmm aaaye
Don’t ever look them in the eye
Lock the door Draw the blinds
If it follows you home
Never let them inside
When they knock three times
Don’t answer the door…. Leave it outside!
Never rock a chair don’t invite
Leave those demons….
Where you found them outside….
[choir sings]
[Fiddle solo]
Mmmmm oooh my ohhh
Mmmmm ooh my oooh
Mmmmmmmmmm ooooohhh mmmmyyyyy oooohhhh
[Outro]
