Skeleton Man

(album: Pistolero - 1999)

I'm a skeleton
I'm a skeleton man
Hold my skeleton
Hold my skeleton hand

I met a child in the hills from the people of the corn
It's been eight hundred years since this child was born

And in his ribs I found a pearl
An offering from the corn world

I'm a skeleton
I'm a skeleton man
Hold my skeleton
Hold my skeleton hand

Hold my hand
We'll walk in the hot sun
Hold my hand
In the hot sand

I'm a skeleton
I'm a skeleton man
Hold my skeleton
(Yeah)

Down in the valley where there used to be the farms
Doctor Digger found a room full of arms

And now there's just a dog that barks (Woof, woof, woof, woof!)
Chained to a one-man trailer park

Thought I heard him say

Hold my hand
We'll walk in the hot sun
Hold my hand
In the hot sand

(I'm a skeleton)
(I'm a skeleton man)
Hold my skeleton
Hold my skeleton hand

I'm a skeleton
I'm a skeleton man
Hold my skeleton
Hold my skeleton hand

I'm a skeleton
I'm a skeleton man
Hold my skeleton
Hold my skeleton hand

I'm a skeleton man
