The Werewolf Song Lyrics - You Are Free - Cat Power

( michael hurley / live ) 

Oh the werewolf, oh the werewolf 

Comes a steppin' along 

He don't even break the branches 

Where he's been gone 

You can hear his long holler from away 'cross the moor 

That's the holler of a werewolf when he's feelin' poor 

He goes out in the evenin' when the bats 're on the wing 

An' he's killed some young maiden before the birds sing 

For the werewolf, for the werewolf 

Have sympathy 

'cause the werewolf he is someone 

Just like you an' me

Once I saw him in the moonlight when the bats were a flyin' 

All alone I saw the werewolf and the werewolf was cryin' 

Cryin' nobody, nobody, nobody knows 

How much I love the maiden as I tear off his cloths 

Cryin' nobody, nobody, knows of my pain 

When I see it has risen that full moon again 

When I see that moon movin' through the clouds in the sky 

I get a crazy feelin' an' I wonder why 

Oh the werewolf, oh the werewolf 

Comes travelin' along 

He don't even break the branches 

Where he's been gone 

For the werewolf have pity, not fear, an' not hate 

'cause the werewolf might be someone that you've known of late

Oh the werewolf, oh the werewolf 

Comes travelin' along 

He don't even crush the leaves 

Where he's been gone
