Don't go to the woods tonight
Don't go to the woods
See how they shine in the K. C. lights
Don't go to the woods


I see desire in your wanting eyes
I see your dress undone
I see you look to the distant lights
Hear those engines hum


Darling, stay right close to me
Do just as you should
For if you go in their company
Oh, then you're gone for good
Don't go to the woods tonight
Don't go to the woods
See how they shine in their K. C. lights
Don't go to the woods

They're gathering now at the edge of town
To kick some cloud of dust
And oh, how those broken boys drag you down
Beneath their boot heels crush

Darling, stay right close to me
Do just as you should
For if you go in their company
Oh, then you're gone for good
Don't go to the woods tonight
Don't go to the woods
See how they shine in their lit up K. C. lights
Don't go to the woods
Don't go to the woods
