Willie Johnson stand out in the field
Nobody treat him wit respect since mother is dead
He look up at the cave
Still a boy in man’s rags
Father and elders tell em the devil lives there
Ain’t nobody supposed to go in

They’ll tell you that y’know
That the devil lives there so you don’t go in
Could be boy Willie’s a cave or ya own heart
They don’t want you to go in
They don’t want you searchin’

-What happened when he went in Pa?

I saw the inside of a cave
