Lyrics

Come gather round people
And I'll tell you the tale
Of the tunnel collapsing
Way up on the hill
Blast them charges
Just a little too hard
One push of the handle
In that old rail yard
Do you know the story
Of Mr. W.W. Poole?
His spirit is hungry
He's our most famous ghoul
If you go there at night
You can hear him cry
And in the right light
Might not make it out alive
So many ghosts in Hollywood
But his is the worst
Blood sucking demon
Dying of thirst
The tunnel was sealed
Their souls wait within
Through walls of stone
And rails of steel
The dust filled the lungs
Of the few left alive
But nobody came looking
Nobody tried
From the wreckage within
There was heard a loud cry
Yonder came a man screaming
With his skull on fire
Hey there Mosby!
Shovel that coal
Has the heat from the fire
Collected your soul?
Way down in Richmond, 1925
Chesapeake Ohio lines
Four men buried alive
So if you find yourself walking
In that old graveyard
When the river runs hardest
And the moon is high
Our vampire's hungry
And it's feeding time
So you warm blooded people
You better hide!
YOU BETTER HIDE!
You better hide
You better hide
YOU BETTER HIDE!
