Cat Power - The Werewolf Song Lyrics
( michael hurley / live )Oh the werewolf, oh the werewolfComes a steppin alongHe dont even break the branchesWhere hes been goneYou can hear his long holler from away cross the moorThats the holler of a werewolf when hes feelin poorHe goes out in the evenin when the bats re on the wingAn hes killed some young maiden before the birds singFor the werewolf, for the werewolfHave sympathycause the werewolf he is someoneJust like you an meOnce I saw him in the moonlight when the bats were a flyinAll alone I saw the werewolf and the werewolf was cryinCryin nobody, nobody, nobody knowsHow much I love the maiden as I tear off his clothsCryin nobody, nobody, knows of my painWhen I see it has risen that full moon againWhen I see that moon movin through the clouds in the skyI get a crazy feelin an I wonder whyOh the werewolf, oh the werewolfComes travelin alongHe dont even break the branchesWhere hes been goneFor the werewolf have pity, not fear, an not hatecause the werewolf might be someone that youve known of lateOh the werewolf, oh the werewolfComes travelin alongHe dont even crush the leavesWhere hes been gone
