There's a shadow hanging over the valley

Total eclipse of the moon

Closing up the gates of the city

The wind plays a wild storm



Don't you put the lock upon the window

Don't you put the bar on the door

Don't you cry for the rain in the sky

You seen the storm before



Well, what's the matter with you baby

Baby, what's the matter now

Tell me what's the matter you running in the shadows

Every time you hear the wild man howl



C'mon, tell me what's the matter with you babe

Baby, what's the matter now

What's the matter now you running in the shadows

Every time you hear the wild man howl



Lightning gonna strike at midnight

Thunder gonna shake it around

Don't you flinch don't give an inch

Just a-let the flood come down



C'mon, tell me what's the matter with you babe

Baby, what's the matter now

What's the matter now you running in the shadows

Every time you hear the wild man howl



C'mon, tell me what's the matter with you babe

Baby, what's the matter now

What's the matter now you running in the shadows

Every time you hear the wild man howl
