Verse 1
Fog on the cypress
Spanish moss hanging low
Half-sunk Pinto where black water goes
Gray shack on stilts
Crooked screen door
Three chimps hollerin' more
Board swinging for worms
Five kids on the rail
Airboat idle
Welcome to Willie's
Come on in
Pre-Chorus
Little orange letters
On a five-cent stamp
Watch the engine flicker
By the spirit lamp
Chorus
It is a triptych on a dashboard line
Florida to Carolina to the end of time
Willie has a postcard for every single swamp
He saw it
He lived it
He mapped it
Follow the fuse
Verse 2
Sunrise over Sandy Run
Gold on the hill
Dust on the track like a hurricane
Monkey in a hat
Riding bulls in the fast lane
Same kids on the rock
Hands to the sky
Cricket flour for sale
Cheering for the critters
As they ride on by
Pre-Chorus
Linen paper crackling
Edges brown and curled
Willie folded legends
Into one weird world
Chorus
It is a triptych on a dashboard line
Florida to Carolina to the end of time
Willie has a postcard for every single swamp
He saw it
He lived it
He mapped it
Follow the fuse
Bridge
The shack is on the crust
Lava rock cracks
Three men in overalls
Red river flows
Stalactites dripping
Nobody comes back
Chorus
It is a triptych on a dashboard line
Florida to Carolina to the end of time
Willie has a postcard for every single swamp
He saw it
He lived it
He mapped it
Follow the fuse
