Valley of Dry Bones
Serpent of old, rides a dark black stead,
A horse trader in a den of thieves
A coin and a trick, to tame your cow lick,
Like a bird in the hand, you stick to the plan
Crow bait, you closed the gate,
Plucked out your eye, laughed when you cried
List in the saddle, culled from the cattle,
Like an apple for a horse, he's gonna lead you off course
He'll take you there, lead you nowhere,
Never to find your way home
In a valley of dry bones
In a valley of dry bones
A Sharpe's Carbine, a dry canteen,
What's left at stake, what good you going to make?
No ground water, no thought, no fodder,
Toil in the tar, with a Webster cigar,
Down this path, there's going to be a blood bath,
Dead in the ground, blowflies flying round
Sixteen trees between here and there,
fire a shot when I'm the last thing you got
He'll take you there, lead you nowhere,
Never to find your way home
In a valley of dry bones
In a valley of dry bones
A horse trader in a den of thieves
A coin and a trick, to tame your cow lick,
Like a bird in the hand, you stick to the plan
Crow bait, you closed the gate,
Plucked out your eye, laughed when you cried
List in the saddle, culled from the cattle,
Like an apple for a horse, he's gonna lead you off course
He'll take you there, lead you nowhere,
Never to find your way home
In a valley of dry bones
In a valley of dry bones
A Sharpe's Carbine, a dry canteen,
What's left at stake, what good you going to make?
No ground water, no thought, no fodder,
Toil in the tar, with a Webster cigar,
Down this path, there's going to be a blood bath,
Dead in the ground, blowflies flying round
Sixteen trees between here and there,
fire a shot when I'm the last thing you got
He'll take you there, lead you nowhere,
Never to find your way home
In a valley of dry bones
In a valley of dry bones
