McCall, C. W. - Comin' Back For More Lyrics






'Way up in the snow
Where the scrub oaks grow
And the coneys and the picas play
Where the marmots abound
All a-diggin' in the ground
And the wind blows cold all day

There's a little pile a' stones
On a little pile a' bones
That's a-what the archaeologists say
But the folks in Lake City
Well, they sing a different ditty
It would like to make your hair turn gray

Now, it's kind'a hard to find
But it'll altercate your mind
If you happen to go the right way
You take Slumgullion Pass
And don't stop for no gas
Until you get yourself to Al's Café

It was the genuine, original
Highly pathological
Finger-lickin' digital café
It was Al Packer's Legendary
Coronary Fast-food
Cannibal Bar and Buffet

Some dark night
You gonna see a weird light
Up on Cannibal Plateau, they say
It's a scrub oak fire
Like a funeral pyre
Old Packer's been a-cookin' all day

A-when the coyotes howl
And the cougar's on the prowl
They ain't lookin' for your customary prey
Nah, they're waitin' for bones
In a pile a' hot stones
At old Al Packer's Café

Comin' back for more
Comin' back for more
Baby, comin' back for more
Al's Cafe
Comin' back for more
Comin' back for more
Baby, comin' back for more

(Old Al Packer
Was a real bone-cracker
Got lost in a blizzard one day)

When the boys went to get 'I'm
Old Al just et 'em
And he buried all the bones in the clay

Now you know them fellas
Wasn't toasted marshmellas
And they didn't fall asleep in the hay
But it had been a hard winter
So he had 'em all for dinner
And they didn't find their boots until May

Well, the folks in Lake City
Showed very little pity
So they sentenced him to hang next day
But before they could noose 'I'm
Old Al got loose an'
He's a-lookin' for you, today

Boohoohaha!

Comin' back for more
Comin' back for more
Baby, comin' back for more
Al's Cafe
Comin' back for more
Comin' back for more
Baby, comin' back for more
(Now 'way up in the snow
Where the scrub oaks grow
And the coneys and the picas play)

Where the marmots abound
All a-diggin' in the ground
And the wind blows cold all day

There's a little pile a' stones
On a little pile a' bones
That's a-what the archaeologists say
But the folks in Lake City
Well, they sing a different ditty
It would like to make your hair turn gray

Now, it's kind'a hard to find
But it'll altercate your mind
If you happen to go the right way
You take Slumgullion Pass
And don't stop for no gas
Until you get yourself to Al's Café

It was the genuine, original
Highly pathological
Finger-lickin' digital café
It was Al Packer's Legendary
Culinary Fast-food
Cannibal Bar and Buffet

Some dark night
You're gonna see a weird light
Up on Cannibal Plateau, they say boohoohaha!
It's a scrub oak fire
Like a funeral pyre
Old Packer's been a-cookin' all day

And when the coyotes howl
And the cougar's on the prowl
They ain't lookin' for your customary prey ahoohoohoohoo!
Nah, they're waitin' for bones
In a pile a' hot stones
At old Al Packer's Cafe
Bleah!

  14. c.... a....

    Big fan. Traveled on Wolf Creek Pass over the Continental Divide. Stopped in Audubon over the way to the East Coast and Ouray on the way back. But today I finally dared to listen to this offbeat song of his. Come to think of it, it's a lot like Camp Bird Mine. Or Night Rider.

    I think I became a journalist so I could tell stories just like him.

    c.... a....

    I just moved to Colorado, and I can't wait to hit Wolf Creek Pass on my way to the Silverton!

    Yes is given name is William Fries he was born in Audubon, Iowa was in the high school band and went on to work in TV and then in advertising where C.W. McCall was born. The C stands for Chip Davis (Mannheim Steamroller) the W stands for William and they needed a last name for the truck driver in the commercial Bill says there was a McCalls magazine on the desk and there you have it.

  19. K.... ....

    CW McCall is still alive today... I collect country music related memorabilia and I wrote to him last year and sent some stuff to be signed by him, and he returned everything signed and also sent me a CD he recently made to keep truckers awake...

  20. t.... ....

    i wrote to him about a month ago and got his autograph

  21. O.... T....

    Alfred G. "Alferd" Packer (January 21, 1842 – April 23, 1907)[1] was an American prospector who was accused of cannibalism during the winter of 1873-1874. In 1968, students at the University of Colorado at Boulder named their new cafeteria grill the "Alferd G. Packer Memorial Grill" with the slogan "Have a friend for lunch!" Students can order an "El Canibal" beefburger as they examine a giant wall map outlining Packer's travels through Colorado.

  22. R.... P....

    Was. He's dead,Long since too. If he wasn't we could have introduced mister forward thinking up there to him.

  28. b.... ....

    @qwer58j I agree. I like this song.

  29. 1.... ....

    What a sense of humor!!! I love it.

  30. n.... ....

    Just loved the words from the Alfred Packer trial." Dangit there were only 5 democrats in the state and you done ate three of em".

    Just when I thought I had everything CW made this comes along. Guess I gotta get looking.

  31. A.... L....

    Great music video? Make that greatest music video ever created...

  32. E.... A....

    It’s a grate song, so it’s to bad I can not say the same about the video. P.S once again why the hell is this not on iTunes.

  33. K.... S....

    @tomde3 obviously you can't tell a talking song from shit.

  34. N.... ....

  35. E.... A....

  36. t.... ....

    woow im 15 and love this song and c w mcall

  37. v.... ....

    @Radiodj213 You have got that right!

  38. g.... s....

    Nice to see ol' Willy Fries doin' what he does BEST!

  39. g.... s....

    Old Willy Fries still looks good! Nice to see him again. I hope he does a few more videos!

  40. v.... ....

    Same with me tank. This song has really grown on me. As much as I love every song on Wolf Creek Pass and Black Bear Road, this song blows them all away. Does Bill have a new CD out with more songs?

  41. b.... ....

    Thanks for posting this. I've been looking for it for a long time.

  42. u.... ....

    @tank2449
    Cw McCall was born William Dale Fries, Jr. on November 15, 1928 in Audubon, Iowa.

  43. t.... ....

    bill is around 73 the last time i checked but he is a legend and im a young person a i love him his best song is there wont be no country music i lisend to him at night before i went to bed all the time

  44. v.... ....

    Just excellent. Awesome Bill

  45. M.... T....

    I heard this way back on DR demento. I was watching Cannibal The musical and I decided in this google age this would be easy to find.

  46. K.... B....

    Utter brilliance!

  47. W.... ....

    best of health to Old Bill!

  48. t.... ....

    I've had the CD for a long time, and never knew there was a video!

    I think this was more than a little inspired by Frank Zanders' "Ur-Ur-Enkel von Frankenstein".

    Search here for Frankenstein Zander. I like the "1969" original you'll find there much better than the 2006 remake - but I only see a real video for the latter.

    Almost the same music and theme, with Frankenstein catching people and using them for spare parts!

    You can find the German lyrics and have Google translate.

  49. u.... ....

    The last original C.W. song. A fast and loose interpretation of an actual event..

    Alferd Packer was the only person in the U.S.A. who was ever be convicted of cannibalism. One day in the dead of winter he left Lake City with five men, despite warnings of bad weather.

    In the spring Al returned to civilization, but without his companions — and with a lot of money.

    Google his name for a good read.

  50. u.... ....

    Any one who is interested can write to him.
    Bill Fries; PO Box E, Ouray, CO 81427

  51. u.... ....

    Bill will sign stuff if you send it to him. But please remember to include return postage for your item (and packaging, too, if thats required), or you may not get it back. Bill is a one-man operation.

  52. t.... ....

    no, i stand by my statement. this bullshit is NOTHING like convoy.

  53. T.... C....

    Stay off these comments if you can't keep a civil tongue in your head.

  54. t.... ....

    what the fuck is this shit?

    t.... ....

    Why don't you come down on some of the lame rap songs out there that truly are SHIT? At least there's a sense of humor with this video. Most rap songs are nothing but worthless shit. Totally without soul and all these rappers do is keep repeating some same shit word over and over and over again like 50 times. Because they're too stupid to come up with actual lyrics. C.W. rocks with this video!

  55. u.... ....

    No Bill is still alive! Had dinner with him in July 2008.

    Any one who is interested can write to him.
    Bill Fries; PO Box E, Ouray, CO 81427

    Bill is one heck of a guy and we look forward to seeing him in July.
    He just had his 80th Birth day on November 15.

  56. T.... C....

    Not to my knowledge.

  57. T.... C....

    Yep. Sure is. The Rubber Duck Himself.

  58. f.... ....

    You can totally hear the sounds of Mannheim Steamroller in this song. Still, the man is amazing.

  59. f.... ....

    C.W Is great

  60. T.... C....

    Yes, he is. Last i heard he lives on Ouray, CO. He Turns 80 Nov 15, 2008

  61. m.... r....

    is cw still alive??

  62. s.... ....

    WAY TO GO C.W.! GLAD to see your back finally!

  63. t.... ....

    I agree

  64. B.... C....

    This happens to be my fave video for Halloween, as it describes a real-life ghost story, the ghosts being the victims of Alfred Packer (found guilty of five counts of murder back in the early 1880's).

  65. J.... ....

    Nice. I love his music. To bad his attempt to come back in the early 90s didnt work out.

  66. T.... C....

    What is the best way to get it to you?

  67. T.... C....

    He is 78 and in Ouray, Colorado.

  68. D.... M....

    Sadly this was done a little while ago and he is now (I believe) retired.

  69. D.... M....

    The master at work.
    Go Al Packer.
