Nightmare #5 (Album Version) - Al Kooper (Al Kooper)[00:00:00]
Written by:Al Kooper[00:00:02]
I was sixteen years of age when I fled my familys house[00:00:13]
And I hitchhiked down the highway[00:00:19]
Trying to make my way down south[00:00:22]
It was in the dead of winter and it chilled me to the bone[00:00:26]
But I was sixteen years of age[00:00:32]
Just trying to get a message home[00:00:35]
It was cold and it was windy and I was two days in my flight[00:00:43]
And my shoes were almost wore through[00:00:49]
And the day was almost night[00:00:52]
When the only car I saw that day came rolling into view[00:00:55]
I just ran onto the highway for to see what I could do[00:01:02]
I waved my arms and hollered and the car it did slow down[00:01:13]
And I asked the man inside to help me[00:01:19]
For to get to the very next town[00:01:22]
He nodded yes and I jumped inside[00:01:25]
I was thankful safe and warm[00:01:28]
But the stranger kept his eyes ahead[00:01:32]
And drove straight into the storm[00:01:35]
I guess I musta fell asleep but I couldn't tell how long[00:01:50]
When I woke up in a hurry with the feel of something wrong[00:01:56]
The stranger was still driving and he did not say a word[00:02:02]
And I asked him many questions[00:02:08]
But he seemed not to have heard[00:02:12]
Then fear began to grab me and I reached out for the door[00:02:26]
When I almost had it open[00:02:32]
Well the car began to soar[00:02:35]
As it angled towards the heavens[00:02:39]
I just tried to catch my breath[00:02:42]
For it was then I knew what time it was[00:02:45]
And the strangers name was death[00:02:48]
