Betty called the sheriff, 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
CHORUS
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 the 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
CHORUS
