Dead Run Lyrics - 16 Horsepower

The devil's brand is on my bones 

An' from inside the holy ghost groans 

Sure as shootin' the undertaker knows 

He lays the headstones in endless rows 

Ye one an' all we croak like a raven 

It's the dead an' the dyin' we're cravin' 

Ye one an' all 

Follow the man tall 

Hear his voice 

An' drop to a dead crawl 

Hey boy 

Look straight at the sun 

To the center you make a dead run 

You're gonna halfta cut off both my hands 

I got pride as big as dixie land 

I want to sit where the velvet is red yes an' 

Where can I lay this apple core? 

I want to drink of the blood that was shed girl 

I can't breathe anymore 

Ye that's right she's waltzin' out the door 

To dandy lions waitin' 

Ye that's right she wants more 

She's my lady in waitin'
