There’s Something in the Woods Lyrics by The Restoration (USA)

Honor the Father

2012

Narrator: Sheriff Glen Elewine, 1954
“There’s something in the woods.”
They’ve been sayin’ that a good long time
Since before I pinned this badge onto this shirt
The stories have been comin’ down the line
There’s been talk about animal sacrifice
Blood rituals—
A family that keeps pagan rites—
A threat to good Christian Lexington-ites
I hear them in the churches singing “Hallelujah”
Now, I think myself a Godly man
But a sheriff can’t make service every Sunday
My sanctum was always an empty road—
Until the Sunday that little boy ran from the woods in tattered clothes
I stopped my car and he came to me, yelling
“I woke up to my momma screaming
Daddy’s hands—his knife—he pushed it down—
Down—
And Momma, she quit moving.”
The boy, he told me he had run
And behind him heard his sister yelling curses
Choked out by the distance he had come
Well, as I locked my car and followed him into the woods off Highway 1, I thought
Some folks say they’ll pray for me and other ones, they wish me luck
Well, either way, I know I’m gonna need it
