Chuck Brodsky 3Rd Dead Cat Lyrics

When you get off of the interstate
When you get off of the interstate
When you get to the end of the ramp
Turn left & then go basically straight

You're gonna go several miles
You're gonna go several miles
You might start to wonder after a while
But you're gonna go several miles

You've gotta go over the gap
You've gotta go over the gap
You might not find it on just any old map
You've got to go over the gap

There'll be a field of corn
There'll be a field of corn
It's at the end of that field of corn
That is, if the weather's warm

Look for the 3rd dead cat
It's just past the 3rd dead cat
Just past the one that's especially flat
It's just past the 3rd dead cat

Turn right at the gravel road
Turn right at the gravel road
Soon as you see it you're just gonna know
Turn right at the gravel road

If you get to the church turn back
If you get to the church turn back
Do a U-turn if you get to the church
The one with the historical plaque

Go up & around the red shack
Go up & around the red shack
Take a look at what they've got out back As you go up & around the red shack

Drive right through that pack of hounds
Drive right through that pack of hounds
They'll all get up from their lying down
To play chicken with you so don't go around

Now that gravel road's gonna split
That gravel road's gonna split
Keep left where the gravel road splits
So you don't go off in the ditch

At all of the forks keep left
At all of the forks keep left
Don't go right at any of the forks
You might end up an unwelcome guest

Brace yourself for the hill
Brace yourself for the hill
Take a deep breath & summon your will
Brace yourself for the hill

All the way to the top
Go all the way to the top
Don't forget to breathe, put down your pop
And whatever you do, don't stop

You'll find the key on the ledge
You'll find the key on the ledge
There's wood on the porch, beer in the fridge
You'll find the key on the ledge

It's just past the 3rd dead cat
It's just past the 3rd dead cat
The one that looks like a welcome mat
It's just past the 3rd dead cat
