If you're a long way from home

Can't sleep at night

Grab your telephone

Somethin' just ain't right

That's evil

Evil is goin' on wrong

I am warnin' you brother

You better watch your happy home

Well

Long way from home and

Can't sleep at all

You know another mule

Is kickin' in your stall

That's evil

Evil is goin' on wrong

I am warnin' you brother

You better watch your happy home

You better catch him'

Cause somethin' wrong

In your home

Well

If you call her on the telephone

And she answers awful slow

Grab the first train smokin'

If you have to hobo

That's evil

Evil is goin' on wrong

I am warnin' you brother

You better watch your happy home

If you make it to your house

Knock on the front door

Run 'round to the back

You'll catch him just before he go

That's evil

Evil is goin' on

I am warnin' you brother

You better watch your happy home
