Salvation On Sand Hill
I wasn't worried
I walked into the room
I saw the serpant's shadow
Against a silver moon
And they said as long as you believe
You'll be alright
And I wasn't worried
Till I saw one bite
You could touch, you could feel
You could smell them all through the night
Oh, but as long as you believe, you're gonna be alright
Or you'll be running, running for your life
But I didn't worry
When I caught the spell
I saw the eyes, saw the teeth, beads of sweat
Think I'd gone to hell
But just as long as you believe
A snake won't bite
Or you'll be running, running for your life
But I've gotta tell you
Power over snakes, ooh
It sure makes me feel so different
From a cane break
And just as long as you believe
A snake won't bite, yeah
Taking up serpents
Can take your life
They stuck my hand down in there
Without a bite
Oh, just as long as you believe, oh
You'll be alright
I should be running, running for my life
Yeah, oh, I didn't tell you
About the one that got bit
On the face, on the arms, 'tween the legs
On the back of the neck
Oh, you see, he didn't believe
The boy didn't believe
I said he didn't believe
He didn't believe
And just as long as you believe, a snake won't bite
See, I didn't worry
'Cause the snake won't bite
Snakes won't bite, ah
And the snake won't bite
I walked into the room
I saw the serpant's shadow
Against a silver moon
And they said as long as you believe
You'll be alright
And I wasn't worried
Till I saw one bite
You could touch, you could feel
You could smell them all through the night
Oh, but as long as you believe, you're gonna be alright
Or you'll be running, running for your life
But I didn't worry
When I caught the spell
I saw the eyes, saw the teeth, beads of sweat
Think I'd gone to hell
But just as long as you believe
A snake won't bite
Or you'll be running, running for your life
But I've gotta tell you
Power over snakes, ooh
It sure makes me feel so different
From a cane break
And just as long as you believe
A snake won't bite, yeah
Taking up serpents
Can take your life
They stuck my hand down in there
Without a bite
Oh, just as long as you believe, oh
You'll be alright
I should be running, running for my life
Yeah, oh, I didn't tell you
About the one that got bit
On the face, on the arms, 'tween the legs
On the back of the neck
Oh, you see, he didn't believe
The boy didn't believe
I said he didn't believe
He didn't believe
And just as long as you believe, a snake won't bite
See, I didn't worry
'Cause the snake won't bite
Snakes won't bite, ah
And the snake won't bite
