Dead Thumb King

(앨범: Tell The Devil I'm Gettin' There As Fast As I Can - 2018)

I got some dirt from Lightning Hopkins grave
And some bones from an old black crow
Got a rattle snake tail inside my guitar
Got a mullein cigarette and double six domino

I got a mercury dime and a 2 dollar bill
And a bouquet of nine black roses
Got 4 thieves vinegar in a mason jar
And I swear by the seven books of Moses

Got an Indian head penny made in a leap year
Took in a mean eyed cat I named her Snakebite
Red devil lye's buried at the 4 corners of my house
Got a mouth harp throw'd away by Charlie Musselwhite

That's working the root at the crossroads
Is bona fide conjuring as all get out
Stand aside less qualified
I am the dead thumb king lest ye doubt

I drink jimson weed, sulphur and honey
I never cut my hair in broad daylight
I wash my hands in two jacks extract
Come dark I light a candle to Saint Expedite

I got a rooster claw nailed to my front door
And a prayer candle on my window sill
I sleep with a woman who can cuss in French
She spins a pinwheel of feathers and daffodils
