Lost Dogs - The Lost Cabin And The Mystery Trees lyrics

Heard you're living in The Lost Cabin 
far behind The Mystery Trees....

 The day you left me in San Bernadino 
I was scopin' out some five and dime
 While I was liftin' a couple of kick-knacks 
you split in that'ol Plymouth of mine

 You always claimed there's still gold 'round Yreka
and 49er blood in your veins 
Today I'm gonna breathe in the hickory wind
 and catch me a couple of trains 

Swear I'll find you somehow my darlin' 
I don't expect it will be a breeze 
Heard you're livin' in The Lost Cabin
 far behind The Mystery Trees 

It's said "our treasure's where our heart is "
It took your leavin' to straighten me out
 and to see without love I am nothing
 but a desert in an endless drought

 I'm finally headin' up there to the North Coast 
and givin' the cops the slip
 Swearin' off cheap wine and petty crime
 and following a pretty good tip

 Swear I'll find you somehow my darlin' 
I'll even crawl on my hands and knees 
Heard you're livin' in The Lost Cabin 
far behind The Mystery Trees

 If I don't make it then I'll die tryin' 
Without faith you can't please the good Lord
 and the cost of sins unforgiven 
is just something I can't afford 

Did you find your little bit of Heaven?
 Well, I'm hopin' it's missing one thing; 
an old sinner man with his heart in his hand, 
your sweet face his only good dream

 Just called your brother whose in Oklahoma
 He told me flat out he'd heard you were dead 
Yeah, thats the rumor goin' 'round 
but I slammed the phone down 
on the harsh things that S.O.B. said

 Now I'm climbin' up the hills 'neath Mounth Shasta 
and hopin' that the fates will play fair
 Got me an old winter coat, a flash-light and a rope 
and I'm prayin' you're not dead up there 

Swear I'll find you somehow my darlin' 
Don't expect it will be a breeze
 Heard you're living in The Lost Cabin
 far behind the Mystery Trees 

Swear I'll find you somehow my darlin'
and forever I do believe 
We'll be together in The Lost Cabin
 far behind the Mystery Trees
