Watch the country legend celebrate the 35-year-old song with a performance from his new live DVD
But killer band aside, it’s the song’s spooky plot and Daniels’ intense delivery that have kept fans of “Wooley Swamp” on the edge of their seat for so long. And it all started when the icon decided to write a ghost story.
In true campfire fashion, Daniels describes a creepy old man who hoards money all over the swamp, taking it out to admire only when the moon is right. A group of local no-goods decide to kill and rob the hermit, but get swallowed by quicksand as they try to escape. Daniels says the whole thing is fiction, of course — there are no alligators in North Carolina and he’s not sure where the name of the old man, Lucius Clay, came from — but the terror of a swamp at night is all too real.
“I come from the coast of North Carolina, and we’re loaded down with swamps,” he says. “I’m familiar with them and spent quite a bit of time in them — hunting and logging and that sort of stuff — and especially at night, they take on a whole other look. Daytime is one thing, but when you go at night it’s just a whole different world.”is available now.
