lyrics

Here abouts in these badlands
There’s a story they tell
I heard it a few times
So I know it quite well

Jack O’ Lantern’s a bad guy
The Will O’ The Wisp
See his footsteps at midnight
In the snow deep and crisp

He laughs in the moonlight
His eyes burn just like coals
He carries a back sack
Where he keeps the lost souls

Don’t follow his foolish fire
Don’t follow his foolish fire
It may be your heart’s desire
Don’t follow his foolish fire

Is that a lamp light
I can see up ahead?
Rolling and reeling
Am I being mislead?

The light keeps on moving
It was East, now it’s West
My body is aching, man
I could do with some rest

Don’t follow that foolish fire
Don’t follow that foolish fire
It may be your heart’s desire
Don’t follow his foolish fire

Staring into the darkness
Straining my sight
Was that laughter I heard?
Was it off to the right?

Staggering blindly
Like a leaf that is blown
Senses ripped open
Like a teardrop hitting a stone

Yeah, I heard it again
It was right over there
This seems like a good time
To remember a prayer

Don’t follow that foolish fire
Don’t follow that foolish fire
It may be your heart’s desire
Don’t follow that foolish fire
