Black Sulphur Spring

from Black Sulphur Spring by Bob Drake

/

lyrics

In a dry and stony gulch adjacent to the abandoned track
there bubbles a black sulphurous spring
no living thing partakes of it or even comes too near
and on its surface is a film of red froth.

The situation round the spring, while certainly unique,
has led to some wild speculation.
The mineral deposits building up around the edge
take on frequently remarkable shapes
suggesting intervention by unknown intelligence
in the very stones, or from underground, or from beyond,
but you and I know that’s just superstition
there’s a rational explanation for it all.

Oh I wish someone would explain it
right now...please, can someone...hey who are you, where’d you come from?
I HAVE COME FROM BEYOND TO FULLFILL YOUR WISH.
NOW GIMME THAT GUITAR, LEMME EXPLAIN, LIKE THIS....

Thanks, you may go now, but that didn’t really answer the question.
Oh wait a sec...oh..too late. Gone....as mysteriously as he had come.
I shoulda gotten his address.
Do they have those in the beyond?
(YES...BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW THEM...)
