(INTRO)
Like Houdini in the river with a lock he couldn't see
When you think you hit the bottom then you better find the key
Like Custer at the Horn when he turned around and said
"when you think you fin'lly got 'em, you're just as good as dead"
It's a time warp puttin' wrinkles in your skin
It's a rockabilly music make you silly in the end
It's a time warp puttin' circles on your eyes
It's a rockabilly music that's a blessing in disguise
Like Ponce de Leon speakin' Spanish in the swamp
"I was lookin' for a fountain, but it's water that I want"
Like Pike at the top and ev'ry other freak
"I was lookin' for a mountain, I took a little peak"
It's a time warp puttin' wrinkles in your skin
It's a rockabilly music make you silly in the end
It's a time warp puttin' circles on your eyes
It's a rockabilly music that's a blessing in disguise
(ELECTRIC PIANO SOLO)
(ELECTRIC GUITAR SOLO)
Like Buddah at the sermon when he didn't say a word
If you think you hear a flower, it's a flower that you heard
Like da Vinci on the roof with his arm in a sling,
"A man's got the power, but a bird's got the wing"
It's a time warp puttin' wrinkles in your skin
It's a rockabilly music make you silly in the end
It's a time warp puttin' circles on your eyes
It's a rockabilly music that's a blessing in disguise
Like Vincent Van Gogh when he chopped off his ear,
"I'd like to give her twenty, but I still gotta hear"
Like Crockett at the wall lookin' back to Tennessee,
"the livin' costs you plenty, but the dyin's still for free"
It's a time warp puttin' wrinkles in your skin
It's a rockabilly music make you silly in the end
It's a time warp puttin' circles on your eyes
It's a rockabilly music that's a blessing in disguise
(Kazoo Solo w/ whistles, snorts, & ?)

Gli Ozark Mountain Daredevils sono una band americana di Southern Rock e Country Rock formatasi a Springfield, Missouri, nel 1971. Il gruppo è noto per il suo sound folk-rock con influenze country e bluegrass, caratterizzato da arrangiamenti orchestrali complessi e testi che raccontano storie della vita rurale americana. Il loro album di debutto omonimo del 1973 raggiunse un grande successo commerciale, vendendo oltre un milione di copie grazie al singolo "Jackie Blue". Altri brani popolari includono "If You Wanna Get to Heaven" e "Come On In", che hanno contribuito a consolidare la loro popolarità negli anni '70. La band ha continuato a registrare e esibirsi fino agli anni '90, mantenendo un seguito fedele di fan. Nel 2018 sono tornati in studio con l'album "The Ozark Mountain Daredevils", dimostrando che la loro musica continua ad avere un impatto sul pubblico contemporaneo.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
