Rattlesnake Shake

a rattlesnake shake

a rattlesnake shake

pursued like a wounded deer

branded inhumanity

crime controlled

wild instinct to stay alive

the morning that will never die

fire down below

deep in my mind

can't be denied

out of sight

like a rattlesnake shake

a rattlesnake shake

like a rattlesnake shake

a rattlesnake shake

when they set my skin on fire

last resort desire

I can't resist

the man they couldn't catch

is the man they couldn't hang

they'll spiteful kissed

balanced on the edge

inseminated death

skeletons left behind

by a rattlesnake shake

a rattlesnake shake

by a rattlesnake shake

a rattlesnake shake

blessed by the gods

which path will he take

visions of freedom

that never awake

they don't shoot him down

and they don't hang him up

but the rattlesnake's bite

and the sun burning black

a rattlesnake shake...
