Welhorn Yards Lyrics

Richmond Fontaine Welhorn Yards

I saw the yobs and D.O.A but I couldn't go home
So I went down to the yards and I sat by the concrete wall
And the wind picked up and I fell asleep on the dirt and gravel at the Welhorn Yards
Harry shook me awake as the wind howled above us and it nearly scared me to death
From a distant street light I saw the cut on his face and his blood soaked shirt
"Everything went wrong," he cried. "I lost the money and I think J.P is gone. He was just laying on the floor when I ran for the door."
At the Welhorn Yards, that night at the Welhorn Yards
Harry smoked cigarettes as the wind flurried above us
I gave him all the money I had and I gave him my ID and coat and watched him disappear down the road
I sat back down and fell into the uneasiest of sleeps
The worst nightmares of sleeps
Where a madman came after me
His hair was on fire and his eyes were bleeding
And he said he was gonna kill me
