Terrance Zdunich & Saar Hendelman - July lyrics

Summer came down with Ohio Fever Ohio Fever Summer came down Farm took to fits But I couldn't leave her I couldn't leave her Summer came down Black in the cotton and rot in the lamb Ash in the windows Ash on the land Summer got spooked Went yellow and ran We ain't going nowhere We ain't going, going nowhere They filled her head with Ohio Fever Ohio Fever They filled her head Wife rattled nonsense The children believed her Children believed her They filled her head Beggared, the neighbors, like injuns, they fled Emptied the streets Emptied their beds Emptied the pews And left Hampshire for dead We ain't going nowhere We ain't going, going nowhere Wagons, wagons Wheels, wheels West, West, West, West Wagons, wagons Wheels, wheels West, West, West, West Wagons, wagons Wheels, wheels West, West, West, West Wagons, wagons Wheels, wheels West, West, West, West Wife lashed her tongue with Ohio Fever Ohio Fever Wife lashed her tongue Rags in her mouth But I couldn't save her I couldn't save her Wife lashed her tongue Upstairs, the children awoke with a shrill Cries borne of devils Cries of the ill Cries under pillows Smothered, then still You ain't going nowhere You ain't going, going nowhere I shot a gun full of Ohio Fever Ohio Fever I shot a gun I prayed a moment But I didn't grieve her I didn't grieve her I shot a gun Outside the tree coughed up blood 'Stead of leaves Coughs from the floorboards Coughs from the eaves I climbed the coughing tree Noose at my sleeves I ain't going nowhere I ain't going, going nowhere Wagons, wagons Wheels, wheels West, West, West, West Wagons, wagons Wheels, wheels West, West, West, West Wagons, wagons Wheels, wheels West, West, West, West Wagons, wagons Wheels, wheels West, West, West, West
