Lyrics
Down the crooked roadways
A child's shadow hiding in the briar
Tending to a twisted heart
That's banned and broken
Wounded and abandoned
Left amongst the rotted roots to rot
Moon, crimson moon
Rosemary's walking down the crooked roadways
All aglow, her fair white skin
Portrait of beauty, angel to many
Hears a hush crying from the briar
Reaches in her hand to see what's the matter
And is dragged through the darkness
'Neath a lonely cypress
The town's beloved daughter
Carried to her death in the turbulent waters
And set afloat downstream
Whole town erupts, burst into flame
Guardies go a-searching down the crooked roadways
Find old Rufus there, drunk in his sleep
Fishing by the water, must have killed our daughter
Can't hold back these waves of anger
Tie a rope 'round his neck and see if he still hollers
Another innocent soul hangs over the briar
