Grew up in the mountains in the woods by the creek
No stranger to the rustling leaves and snapping of sticks
But I never knew terror could rattle down my spine
Till I saw it fallin from the sky
Came round shooting colors that no human could describe
As sundown painted shadows dancing on the mountainside
I left the water at the well prayed to heaven ran like hell
Somethings wrong in hopkinsville tonight
Lucky Johny June Gillene Billy Ray And Alein
Wouldn't buy why I was terified
Till that wicked light had flood the trees
Figures crept out of the leaves
with pointy ears and giant shining eyes
Well the devil must have sent them here
with yellow eyes and pointy ears like
icecles in the circle o' the ninth
12 gauge only knocked them down they
hop right up and turned around
made a beeline for the treeline just as somethin grabbed my hair
Well these goblins kept gobling, they kept on tryin to get in
and goble up my family and me
Keep them in your rifle sight
they're scratchin at the door all night
and they don't let up til the first morining light
Some say they came from outer space
or been here the whole time
Some say they done crawled outta that old abandond mine
You can call me a fool you can say that I lied
But those devils gonna haunt me til the day I die
