[Chorus]
Dear man (Dear man) in the woods (In the woods)
The one with the silhouette covering up the moon
Why you here? (Why you here?) Ain't you cold? (Ain't you cold?)
You know the television man said it's 'bout 20 below
Why won't you budge (Why won't you budge) or talk to me from afar?
But as soon as I spoke he disappeared in the dark
Mohican, the last Mohican, the last Mohican

[Verse 1]
So one night me and a couple my buddies
Were cruisin' these roads that we never have seen
Still in Cheatham County this is back when I was just turnin' 'bout 17
Yeah, we went to a party and ended up leavin'
'Cause word had it cops were already on the route
Had a ounce of grass in my toolbox
So we went down a patch where there wasn't any houses
Pulled over with the dome light
Glean of smoke rollin' out of that stock Ranger
Suddenly my spine felt a sense of danger
And I turnt around and seen a black figure
Seven feet tall with a trench coat
Long beard lookin' like a lumberjack
Slowly comin' out the smokey woods
With a heavy axe and a solid hat
[Chorus]
Dear man (Dear man) in the woods (In the woods)
The one with the silhouette covering up the moon
Why you here? (Why you here?) Ain't you cold? (Ain't you cold?)
You know the television man said it's 'bout 20 below
Why won't you budge (Why won't you budge) or talk to me from afar?
But as soon as I spoke he disappeared in the dark
Mohican, the last Mohican, the last Mohican

[Verse 2]
I was frozen solid by what I was seein'
Sam in the truck, yellin' "Fuck it let's leave"
My body was paralyzed, tongue couldn't speak
And I fell in the mud when I dropped to my knees
I just seen a ghost, something I don't believe in
I just heard some words that weren't comin' from me
He said "You're on my land" but this road has no resident
Then he said "I've been here since 1870
I'm stuck in this world 'cause I haven't been heavenly
Lurkin' these trees, yes I'm kinda devilish
Quit walkin' the woods at the witchin' time boy
You shouldn't be here so don't make me annoyed"
I jumped in my truck, you know I wasn't stayin'
But sometimes I wonder, you know what I'm sayin'
I wish I woulda got to talk to the man
Who didn't exist in my rearview mirror
[Chorus]
Dear man (Dear man) in the woods (In the woods)
The one with the silhouette covering up the moon
Why you here? (Why you here?) Ain't you cold? (Ain't you cold?)
You know the television man said it's 'bout 20 below
Why won't you budge (Why won't you budge) or talk to me from afar?
But as soon as I spoke he disappeared in the dark
Mohican, the last Mohican, the last Mohican

[Verse 3]
Dear man in the woods I wish I got a name
So I could understand some of your pain
Like why'd you emerge on me late that night
I've been thinkin' 'bout that for like 10 years now
Still cruise that backroad just to see if you're here
But all that I see is some white tail deer
Hell maybe you saved me, if you did I'm sincere
From yours truly, that really scared kid

[Outro]
The last Mohican
The last Mohican
The last Mohican
The last Mohican
