Howling Wolf
(Dunlop/Schmidt)

Take a ride on the Howling Wolf
engines roaring in the dark
whistle blowing though the night
and the white smoke rising high
against the starry sky - oh what a night to take a ride
take a ride on the Howling Wolf -oh Howling Wolf.

Think I gotta leave this time
I'm so weary and confused
think I need a change right now
so I'm heading way down south
along this railroad track - I'm Louisiana bound
take a ride on the Howling Wolf -oh Howling Wolf.

Bayou music in my head
good old country style
I heard someone say before
"raised and swam with the crocodile"
soon I'll be gone - but my mind's still set on you
no more ride on the Howling Wolf - oh no Howling Wolf

no more ride on the Howling Wolf - oh no Howling Wolf.
