Ron Sexsmith - Snake Road lyrics

rate me

When I think about those dog days,

I was doing everybody wrong,

couldn't keep my thoughts straight

coudln't keep my trousers on,

Now I pray it's not too late

to take the chance before it's gone.

That I don't go down that same road twice,

that I won't be taking Satan's advice,

I must admit I've paid that price

but I'm saying goodbye to bad advice

People you can save your judgement

for somebody who might give a damn,

go and blow your two cents,

on a horn in a traffic jam,

at any rate it's much too late to blame myself for who I am

just hope I don't go down that snake road twice

That I won't be taking another bite

I must admit temptation's nice

but I'm saying goodbye to bad advice, oh,

you, bad advice.

I'm always making the same mistake,

all this taking is hard to take,

When I think about bygone days

I was doing everybody wrong

always taking the long way

and ending up where I don't belong

now I pray it's not too late to change the path I'm running on

Oh I hope I don't go down that same road twice,

that I won't be taking Satan's advice,

I hope the memories will suffice

but I'm saying goodbye

I hope I don't go down that snake road twice,

that I won't be taking another bite

I hope the memories will suffice

but I'm saying goodbye

I must admit temptation's nice

but I'm saying goodbye to bad advice

I'm saying goodbye to bad advice, ohh.

Bad advice, bad advice.
