|
The devil's brand is on my bones |
|
An' from inside the holy ghost groans |
|
Sure as shootin' the undertaker knows |
|
He lays the headstones in endless rows |
|
One an' all we croak like a raven |
|
It's the dead an' the dyin' we're cravin' |
|
One an' all, follow the man tall |
|
Hear his voice an' drop to a dead crawl, yeah |
|
Hey boy, look straight at the sun |
|
To the center you make a dead run |
|
You're gonna halfta cut off both my hands |
|
I got pride as big as Dixie Land |
|
I wanna sit where the velvet is red yes an' |
|
Where can I lay this apple core? |
|
I wanna drink of the blood that was shed girl |
|
I can't breathe anymore |
|
Ya that's right she's waltzin' out the door |
|
To dandy lions waitin' |
|
Ya that's right and she wants more |
|
She's my lady in waitin' |
|
One an' all we croak like a raven |
|
It's the dead an' the dyin' we're cravin' |
|
One an' all, follow the man tall |
|
Hear his voice an' drop to a dead crawl, yeah |
