Romulus and Remus' hill
Lived at the top of Ouchita Bend
Momma died, they laid her down
And quickly took to squabbling
Oh, but this one's mine

If you take that then you'll never be my brother
Oh, if you take mine
If you do that then you'll never be my brother
Again

They get to thumping and the house quaked
They call the lightning down from God's front gate
And all the neighbors had to move along
For fear they'd all get caught up in the wake
Of the titan gods

Good old boys and the oubliette of life
Southern county, oh, the titan gods
Good old boys and the oubliette of life
Southern county, oh, the titan gods
Good old boys and the oubliette of life
Southern county again

Romulus and Remus' hill
Fought all the way down the road through town
None could stop their evil brawl
Until they reached the county burial ground
And the lightning spoke

Living gods, just a silhouette
Face upon the mountain, and the thunder roared
St Michael's swords, just a hurricane being born
In the valley, and the lightning spoke
Living gods, just a silhouette
Face upon the mountain, and the thunder roared
St Michael's swords, just a hurricane being born
In the valley, again

A hurricane being born
In the valley, again
A hurricane being born
In the valley, again
