Textes et Paroles de Snake Lore

i came to in the back seatand we were stuck in traffic in west virginiaand your cousin was talking abouthow your mother bought a thousand neckties for fifty bucksand was looking for some place to sell themand the radio played a country songabout a man who had fallen out of grace with godand now needed something beyond those swinging doorshe was broke down and chainedsold out, spin into ruinin barroomsi fell asleep againand as we passed by a school busi fell into dreamsin dreams, i saw a snake whose head had been hacked offcome back together just like that and bite a dogand i saw my great grandmother ethel in her gardenchopping snakes to pieces with a shoveland i saw my grandfather hold up a snake to the fireand when it got close its legs popped out of its sideslike lizard legs, to hold back the flamesand there was the snake who'd milk the cow at nightthere was the rattlesnake found frozen stiff by the creek shoreand as it warmed by the fireplaceit began to singand i dreamed i saw a snake grow large and longand spread out across the earthuntil it covered the hills and towns and valleysand became a great riverand it thundered with ships and swimming beastsand it took men, so men feared the riverand their sons feared the riverand i saw the river became a seaand then it was a river againand i saw the river become a streamand then it was a thin and rocky creeki saw the creek ice over in the winterand then fall fast in the springand it settled the cracked mud in the depths of summercome fall it was a snake againand it moved off into the brushand was gone
