Snake Wine
I just crawled out of the jungle
Lost in the mist of time
Scorpions crawl on my trouser leg
Where the sweat can burn like a rock in the desert
We made it out by midnight
When the lightning cut the sky
Where the heart of the dragon beats between
A kerosene lamp and this bottle of fire
I did not see it coming
But I walked on the edge of time
Somebody told me you better start running
But I hung around and it laid me on the ground
I got me a bellyful of snake wine
Long years pass and I am old
But the memory stays so young
Doesn't fade like days gone by
It feels like a nightmare just begun
I did not see it coming
But I walked on the edge of time
Somebody told me you better start running
But I hung around and it laid me on the ground
I got me a bellyful of snake wine
Lost in the mist of time
Scorpions crawl on my trouser leg
Where the sweat can burn like a rock in the desert
We made it out by midnight
When the lightning cut the sky
Where the heart of the dragon beats between
A kerosene lamp and this bottle of fire
I did not see it coming
But I walked on the edge of time
Somebody told me you better start running
But I hung around and it laid me on the ground
I got me a bellyful of snake wine
Long years pass and I am old
But the memory stays so young
Doesn't fade like days gone by
It feels like a nightmare just begun
I did not see it coming
But I walked on the edge of time
Somebody told me you better start running
But I hung around and it laid me on the ground
I got me a bellyful of snake wine
