I'll tell it like it happened it was

Darius and

Noland and me

Just a few po' boys trying to get up outta

MissouriTook 55 to

Louisiana stopped by the highway to eat

They both had crawfish strictly chicken for me

Back out under thunderheads the radio was southern soul

They interrupted

Clarence Carter with a strange-ass local show

They were sayin'

Come down to

Lake Pontchartrain

Rest your soul and feed your brain

That's where you will get to see

Everything the water can be

The rain was comin' down the wind was howlin' outside of

SlidellIt was the kinda night that makes you think the whole world's goin' to hell

We got off on an exit 'cause we couldn't read the map so great

Near the Choctaw

Motel we parked to deliberate

When out of the bayou came a man like the lake had a tongue

He was right up on the glass all yellow eyed

Black teeth bangin' on the windshield

Screamin' like a demon at the top of his lungs

Come down to

Lake Pontchartrain

Rest your soul and feed your brain

Free for you and all your friends

Crawfish 'til the bitter end

Come down to

Lake Pontchartrain

Wade to where the shallows break

That's where you will get to see

Everything the water can be

I was driving out of there as fast as a

Camry could

But the interstate was flooded and

I had to take the road through the woods

Bad move in retrospect the road disappeared in the rain

And I stood on the brakes when

I saw the sign

Lake Pontchartrain

Darius was yelling that he saw somebody out in the swells

He jumped out runnin' and

Noland was goin' as well

Come back why the hell would they leave the car

And that's when

I heard it make no mistake

The voices were calling them from under the lake

Come down to

Lake Pontchartrain

Come down to

Lake Pontchartrain

Come down to

Lake Pontchartrain

Come down to

Lake Pontchartrain

The crawfish were screaming the waves danced in time

My friends went in deeper the water it climbed

I watched in terror the lake opened wide

And horribly roaring it pulled them inside

That's how it happened why would

I lie There were no bodies

I've got none to hide

I'm just a boy lost his friends in the rain

Any more questions just go and ask

Lake Pontchartrain
