I met Roky Erickson
I met Roky Erickson
I saw him on a public access television
He said he signed his soul to the devil
I heard him on the radio
Singin' Don't Shake Me Lucifer

This guy came to McDonald's
Said he wanted to do a video
He said I've worked with Roky Erickson
I said let's make a horror movie

We took the bus across town
And we came to Roky's home
We walked in, it was eerie
He was playing guitar with his records all alone

We were going to make a film
Called The Damn Thing
But it never came about
But I always went to his house

His mum would make chicken
And we would watch horror movies
The last time that I saw him
Was when he did a show
Me and Theresa Coffee
Went and saw Roky play
He sang Bloody Hammer
And Two Headed Dog

The band was true believers
But the promoters turned the power off
He said: "I've been drinking lots of blood."
The crowd went wild

I met Roky Erickson
I met Roky Erickson
I met Roky Erickson
I met Roky Erickson

Roky...
