Yeah, I can see it now

The distant red neon shivered in the heat

I was feeling like a stranger in a strange land

You know where people play games with the night

God, it was too hot to sleep I followed the sound of a jukebox coming from a levee

All of a sudden I could hear somebody whistling from right behind me

I turned around and she said

"Why do you always end up down at Nick's Cafe?"

I said, "I don't know, the wind just kind of pushed me this way"

She said, "Hang the rich" Catch the blue train

To places never been before

Look for me

Somewhere down the crazy river

(Somewhere down the crazy river)

Catch the blue train

All the way to Kokomo

You can find me

Somewhere down the crazy river

(Somewhere down the crazy river) Take a picture of this

The fields are empty, abandoned '59 Chevy

Laying in the back seat listening to Little Willie John

Yeah, that's when time stood still

You know, I think I'm gonna go down to Madam X

And let her read my mind

She said, "That voodoo stuff don't do nothing for me" I'm a man with a clear destination

I'm a man with a broad imagination

You fog the mind, you stir the soul

I can't find, no control Catch the blue train

To places never been before

Look for me

Somewhere down the crazy river

(Somewhere down the crazy river)

Catch the blue train

All the way to Kokomo

You can find me

Somewhere down the crazy river

(Somewhere down the crazy river) Wait, did you hear that

Oh, this is sure stirring up some ghosts for me

She said, "There's one thing you've got to learn

Is not to be afraid of it"

I said, "No, I like it, I like it, it's good"

She said, "You like it now

But you'll learn to love it later" I been spellbound falling in trances

I been spellbound falling in trances

You give me shivers, chills and fever

You give me shivers

You give me shivers

I been spellbound, I been spellbound

I been spellbound somewhere down the crazy river

Somewhere down the crazy river
