Old Pharr Mounds

Pharr Mounds

There’s a place in the pines forgotten by time where the sun never reaches the ground
There tracks can be seen of an unnatural thing down at the old Pharr mounds

Down at the old Pharr mounds.
There’s something there roaming around
If you care for your soul you best never go down to the old Pharr mounds

When the land was still new and the first tribes came through
They’re the bones of the braves were laid down
Whether called to protect or the old smell of death,
It’s drawn to the old Pharr mounds.

Down at the old Pharr mounds
It’s there in the dark waiting now
If you care for your soul you best never go down to the old Pharr mounds

In my grandfather’s youth, he strayed to the slough that borders that old burial ground
Though found still alive, but scarred from the night, he spent at the old Pharr mounds.

Down at the old Pharr mounds the link to ape and man can be found
If you care for your soul you best never go down to the old Pharr mounds

It’s been called many names, but the warning’s all the same
Stay clear of the old Pharr mounds
