There was a time it was it was fine as wine
When Herschell Gordon Lewis made movies below that Florida line
He ruled that southern drive in circuit like no one else
Pumping out gore and blowing hillbilly minds
Blood Feast 2000 Maniacs and the Wizard of Gore
He gave us blood like we never saw before
1963 he released the first gore flick
He gave out vomit bags in case you got sick
When the Beatles sang I Wanna Hold Your Hand
He had a redneck chop off a yankee's arm Goddamn
Gruesome Twosome Gore Gore Girls and Color Me Blood Red
He Really knocked them dead
He never cared what the critics had to say
He made his movies and he did it his own way
Hats off to the man that colored it blood red
And brought those people from Pleasant Valley from the dead
