The Lakeview Man - The Rainmakers

Betty called the sheriff and said come quick

Somebody broke in my freezer and stole all my steaks

The dog is still hiding, the sheriff said ma’am

Sounds to me like the Lakeview Man

The Lakeview Man is a wild man

Lives in the woods outside of town

Howls at the moon, listen if you can

And you might hear the Lakeview Man

Some say he was a soldier who came home from war

All in one piece but with emotional scars

Agree on the story, argue about the date

Vietnam or the War Between the States

I took the shortcut to the river last night

A beard and a blur in the long beam lights

We drank a few beers, skipped a few stones

And I drove a little faster on my way back home

A dog disappears, a cow is found dead

A chicken is missing, found missing it’s head

Shotgun gone, print in the sand

Two toes shy, the Lakeview Man

Repeat Chorus
