Wind's moving wrong tonight Somebody brought trouble to the ridge again Please don't tell me it's that same damn man Crow rolled his eyes and said it is Devil's Courthouse ridge tonight Lanterns swing in the mountain light Coven circle boots in line Let the old ridge read your crime Crow don't judge crow just checks Wind decides the mountain hex If your name rides that cold wind next Ridge says you get hexed Fog rolls slow up the courthouse wall Lanterns glow where the night birds call. Boot heels crunch down the gravel draw That's the meeting. Emma said circle up hold tight Wind runs strange on the ridge tonight Sal looked down like this can't be right Same damn man Crow on the rail like he's seen this show Head tipped back like girl we know Somebody whispered He back again Whole Coven groanin You brought lies to a mountain court Thought nobody kept that report But the ridge keeps books you can't distort Your case still open Devil's Courthouse ridge tonight Lanterns swing in the mountain light Coven circle boots in line Let the old ridge read your crime Crow don't judge crow just checks Wind decides the mountain hex If your name rides that cold wind next Ridge says you get hexed Wind cuts sharp through the cedar and pine Lantern sparks down the ridge line Emma sighed like third damn time This month alone Sal leaned back on the courthouse stone Said boy you really ain't learnt much Crow laughed once said This man is dumb Pine trees lean when the cold winds blow Old ridge judges what the crowbird knows Some folks walk back down that bend Some don't leave at all If the wind says mercy you walk away If the ridge says debt you gonna pay Mountain justice don't hear what you say Just receive it Lanterns dim Wind moves slow Crow said y'all wanna hex him or let him go Coven sang Let the ridge decide But it's his time Devil's Courthouse ridge tonight Lanterns burn in the mountain light Coven stands while the winds confess Who the ridge bout to hex Crow took flight verdict passed Cold wind carries your crooked past If the mountain whispers your name next That's the night you get hexed
