Buried deep down in the south When County Crow was new Legend says out in the woods A wizard lived there too They say his beard was white as snow His skin like leather hide He wore a robe of starlight and treated people kind When bees bit little Tommy's eyes The old man made some tea And after screaming through the night The little boy could see One day a preacher came to town His wide hat just as broad His sermons preached witchcraft And the mighty wrath of god He taught the town to fear the gifts That blessed their livelihoods And soon the town marched on the man Who lived out in the woods Led by the preacher, torches lit They stormed the Wizard's land But some crows flew ahead of them And warned him of their plans The wizard of Crow County always had a cure Healing with the magic of the forest and the stars He stood outside his wooden shack Waiting for the crowd And when their fire reached his eyes He spoke and stood his ground I've been good to this town I've helped you build your lives But if you want I'll up and go the sad old wizard cried Without another word he went, cats following his steps The mob descended on his shack And stole the land he left And now the town lies destitute The wizard's curse they say He who never hurt a soul or had cruel things to say He could have burned the land to ash Or plagued their crops for years But all the wizard left behind Was suffering and tears So think on of the wizard and County Crow's downfall You can use your hands to heal your friends Or you can damn them all The Wizard of Crow county always had a cure Healing with the magic of the forest and the stars The Wizard of Crow county used his gifts to heal If only man could understand the power he could wield The Wizard of Crow County lives to serve mankind A legend or a myth they say of magic left behind The wizard of Crow County lives in every town
