16 HORSEPOWER - Dead Run lyrics

rate me

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