Snakebit (Album Version) - Mary Gauthier[00:00:00]
Written by:Hayes Carll[00:00:01]
The children are crying they never got their supper[00:00:18]
Where would you run to in the darkness of the night[00:00:24]
Even shadows fear to wander[00:00:30]
They gather round me in the candlelight[00:00:35]
Your crucifix broken bloody sharp and shattered[00:00:48]
I smashed it to pieces on the bedroom floor[00:00:53]
Pain and prayers and promises scattered[00:00:59]
Then I pulled the pistol from the dresser drawer[00:01:05]
Oh Lord[00:01:10]
Oh Lord[00:01:13]
Oh Lord[00:01:16]
What have I done[00:01:17]
Everything worth holding slips through my fingers[00:01:22]
Now my hands wrapped around the handle of a gun[00:01:26]
The further I fall the less I falter[00:01:46]
Forsaken forgotten without love[00:01:51]
A slow motion whisper turns into a holler[00:01:57]
40 years of push turns into shove[00:02:03]
Oh Lord[00:02:08]
Oh Lord[00:02:11]
Oh Lord[00:02:14]
What have I done[00:02:16]
Everything worth holding slips through my fingers[00:02:20]
Now my wrapped around the handle of a gun[00:02:25]
The chair that I sit in belong to my daddy[00:03:17]
Carved from the hard wood of a bitter tree[00:03:22]
When he was alive he used to tell me kid[00:03:27]
I knew when you were born you'd end up snake bit like me[00:03:32]
Oh Lord[00:03:38]
Oh Lord[00:03:41]
Oh Lord[00:03:44]
What have I done[00:03:46]
Everything worth holding slips through my fingers[00:03:50]
Now my hands wrapped around the handle of a gun[00:03:54]
I'm holding on to the handle of a gun[00:04:03]
