lyrics

there was a man from far away
he brought his pipe he left his soul
to a town called birdsong arkansas
where he was met with stone cold eyes

all day he worked in the coal mines
all night he grieved and wallowed
the people tried to cast him away
the man of many faces

in the trees he felt a presence
of a woman with a magic air
she said i know how to mend your sorows
just follow me and you'll be free

the eyes are all around
the eyes are watching
if you lie with the devil the eyes will see

poor jimbo burned the house down
the flames turned it all to ash
inside there slept a family of three
jimbo walked away straight down the dirt lane

jimbo lays awake his heart still racing
his conscience branded with the weight
strangled by his shadows
for what he did he can't erase

he's cursed to live foeverr with ihs suffering and his pain
now poor ol' jimbo has learned from his mistake
he layed with the devil and sealed his fate
his soul will live on till the end of time

the eyes are all around
the eyes are watching
if you lie with the devil
the eyes will see
