Walking home through the graveyard, somebody called to me.
They said come over here & speak to us, you got something that we need.
And I was apprehensive, still I headed on their way,
And when I got there they leaned close & whispered in my ear…
“…Boneyard King.”
That’s what they called me, and it didn’t put my mind at ease.
Still I stayed with them awhile.
In fact, I stayed with them until I wasn’t scared at all.
I wasn’t scared. Cuz it’s a…
Boneyard King, you Boneyard King.
You said it’s never been & so it never will,
And if you felt it once I guess you feel it still.
You said it’s always been & so it always will,
And if you felt it once I guess you feel it still.
