it started as a trip to tennessee in '82
didn't really know what we were getting ourselves into
that cabin in the woods had quite the evil appeal
the bridge was collapsing, but the price was a steal
we found a book inked in blood and bound in human flesh
then bit off more than we could chew when we put it to the test
those demons lured ya into the woods, seems they've had their way
ya begged and pleaded for us to leave but there's just no escape
shut up cheryl, we already know that you're right
shut up cheryl, quit reminding us that we're dying tonight
it didn't take long for things to go wrong on that wicked night
we tried to go but the bridge was out, so now we're stuck alright
hid inside for safety but they came in you a second time
now you're reborn to kill and linda's first in line
so we locked ya in the cellar, it's too late you've had yer fun
those demons were probably right, they'd take us one by one
ya might've paved the path and shelly followed yer tracks
but she wasn't as lucky, she got dismembered with an axe
shut up cheryl, yer driving me insane
shut up cheryl, you won't break all those chains
but i leave for a minute and yer on the loose again
awaken from an ancient slumber, ya ought to be dead
this trip has turned out for the worse, now everyone is dead
my linda tried to kill me but with a shovel i took her head
now i'm the last man standing, surrounded by decay
dawn is approaching, but i'll die either way
