the mighty everglades

it's beautiful at sunset but oh

there's something else that makes bravest heart afraid

a word of things a-crawling and a-thumping

and a-bawling and a-wadin' in the everglades. creepin'

seepin'

i hear a million things a-weepin'

as i gazed into the weirdness

of the mighty everglades. over and over

i called

oh

please come back my lover

but my love is dead or wand'ring

in the fearful everglades. voices calling

shadows falling

spirits of those who ventured in and stayed

hear it

fear it

never

never go too near it

for there's myst'ry in the hist'ry of the mighty everglades. seeping

crawling

spirits calling

sliddin'

hidin'

my love in the everglades

over and over i call but now she's gone for ever

and my heart is wand'ring with her through the mighty everglades. a world of things a-crawling

and a-thumping and a-bawling

and a-wadin' in the everglades.
