Here is one I remember hearing as a kid. https://youtu.be/SldQ0qCE4Sw

Prairie Ramblers - Ghost in the Graveyard

Well it was scary then and horrible back then.

Alternative lyrics for Tom Dooley:

Hang down your head Tom Dooley,
Hang down your head and cry,
Hang down you head Tom Dooley,
Cos your tie's caught in your fly.


Cheers,
Keith

Ah - some "fun" songs to listen to here - but I agree with Hear to Learn - gotta stay out of the death metal / devil worship genre...

Alice Cooper has a song "I love the dead"...though I can't relate - it's better than hurting the living I guess...but I think it's really more about shock value than that he genuinely relates to the song....

Now Frank Zappa has a song about loving appliances....at first I thought it was the stupidest thing ever, and that the guy was despicable...but then again, there are many other types of appliances that are very helpful to the average person - so maybe there was more to this song than the surface lyrics...

Sometimes I think folks love their cell phones more than they care about people.

I am trying to decide if Christopher Lee's metal music qualifies. (Dracula of Hammer films fame.)

Yes, he had a metal band.

Led Zepplins "What is and what should never be" in my opinion is about illicit sex. Lots of rockers who didn't know any better participated in under age sex. But the tolerence level was different and churches of various kinds weren't parading politics. At this point Religion has way too much Hate towards so many kinds of groups that for me I have withdrawn my support for it. It's not worth my time. and I am unwilling to hate the groups of people the Evangelicals and Baptist's hate.

Groups I Refuse to listen to
Gary Glitter (Never have listened to any of his songs.)
Feel free to add to this list.

Aussie band Skyhooks had a song “Horror Movie”. The line “Horror movies right there on my TV. Horror movies the 6:30 News.”

I sit here right now in front of my TV almost in tears watching the news and the devastation and loss of lives on the South East Coast of New South Wales and Eastern Victoria. These fires just keep going and getting worse for all concerned.

Not to make light of it but Skyhooks - Horror Movie can be something different albeit a really good song. https://youtu.be/XljmO_KPQaM

Well, a song comes to mind sung by a couple of folks from close to where I grew up. Here's Ralph Stanley and Patty Loveless;
