Canyon

i was driving all alone back down the dusty road
to get on home to my baby, cause she told me
and its feeling like a storm where its getting warm 
and the devils coming out to find me

my hands are getting old but up ahead
i see someone hitching for a lift
as the wind is picking up i unlock the door
he gets in to grab a seat beside me

now believe me it got freaky baby
he started talking crazy and he looked me in the eye

but she told me to lay it all to rest
come on my baby, i'm just trying to find out
no i don't really mind what that preacher said
its what she told me, ya, she told me

then he says take me to church
rolls down the window to let a little air in
man i don't know where he's going or when it started howling
but the sky is getting dark again

and the clouds are growing heavy, getting strong,
and the lightning hits before the rain
he looks me in the eyes, starts to smile
and the wind is calling out my name

now believe me, it got freaky baby
i was driving through a cyclone during pentacost
the tempest was taking me home
when he started screamin' like a demon and he looked me in the eye

but she told me to lay it all to rest
come on my baby, i'm just trying to find out
no i don't really mind what that preacher said
its what she told me, ya, she told me
