Demon John Lyrics

Cover art for Demon John lyrics by Jeff Buckley

This song is brilliant but it really stumps me. Maybe just because I smoked about a million cigarettes tonight and I feel a bit sick, but I really can't figure out what it's about. Anyone got any clues for me? I would love to play this song but obviously I can't if I don't know what it means! Help me out fellow Buckley lovers! xox
