lyrics

Hoodoo County

I was searching for a woman in the summer of love
too bad the ladies were hard to find
It was during that summer was approaching me
that we spoke for a while and she gazed into my mind

It's like swimming in a river being pushed upstream
strange looking visions painted in your mind
easy living ain't what it seems to be
when I'm hanging around with the other kind.

(chorus)
It's been a long day in hoodoo county
it's been a short night in voodoo calm
how can I persuade for you to join me, yeah?
Under the moonlit calm?

A miracle is going to catch up to me
if it comes any closer just chase it away
while I'm waiting for a change in the scenery
I'm going to save my conscience for another day.

(chorus)

You can pick up your remains and leave me be
Because I find it hard to stare in your eyes
or we can wait a bit but still feel free
now I know how it feels when the sparrow flies
and I know how it feels when the sparrow cries
and I know how it feels when the sparrow dies.
