Lyrics
HEY WOLF

Baby?s not my baby now, she fell for John McWade
Ain?t that a peach, I?ve known ?em both since back in second grade
I couldn?t bear to watch those two, I would have lost my mind
All of my life I?ve loved the town they made me leave behind
I drove till I got way up North to find a new address
I?m parked here off the roadside in the wilderness
Now there?s something you don?t see every day
A glimpse of a wolf fifty yards away
If I could talk to that wild thing, I would say
Would ya howl for me tonight?
Tell the moon something?s just not right
I shouldn?t be out here alone
Searching for a home
Would ya howl for me?
Sing about how lonely a man can be
Hey wolf, won?t you please howl for me?
The sun is sinking way down low, I might as well just stay
Here among the trees that hide my old Chevrolet
Sleepy now, and curled up on my lonely backseat bed
But when I close my eyes a vision fills my head
I see something you don?t see every day
The face of a wolf with eyes of grey
And so I talk to that wild thing, and I say
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Something breaks the silence
Something shakes me to my bones
Something wakes me up to knowing
I am surely not alone
No words ever known to humankind
Could ever speak this pain of mine
Like what I hear coming through the pines right now
I hear a howl
It?s a howl for me
CHORUS
