Ridin' low in the saddle
Got the heavy hands of battle
Weighin' on you
So ya thought ya hit the big time
Found a little spot to unwind
Ain't it true?
When the bottoms rise to the top
There's only one thing left to do
Find another view
I'm alone
How can that be?
I hear the call
But it don't hear me
Searchin' out to land
Hatch yourself a grand plan
Be brand-new
Racin' towards redlight
Mind pacin' like a cockfight
Both will lose
Been them the devil
So you tried to be a rebel
Break the rules
When the bottoms rise to the top
There's only one thing left to do
Find another view
I'm alone
How can that be?
I hear the call
But it don't hear me
It's better to be pissed off than on
And some things are better left said in a song
I'm alone
How can that be?
I hear the call
But it don't hear me

Black Widow Blues

I gotta black widow spider for a mama, lord
I gotta diamondback rattler for a pa
And I got me a girl down in New Orleans
And I got me a girl in Arkansas
I gotta mornin' full of make-believe
I gotta evenin' full of time
I got the hands, pretty lady, gonna make ya grieve
But the lovin' gonna make you mine
I ain't never seen this town before
And I won't be back again
I gotta find a place to hide my face
From the howlin' of the wind
I got the blues sewn into my jacket sleeve
I gotta goat skin full of wine
I got the hands, pretty lady, gonna make ya grieve
But the lovin' gonna make you mine
So light a candle above your door
And open your curtains wide
Take the lace all from your hair
Lay it down at your side
I ain't lookin' for a lie to believe
No, mine will do just fine
I got the hands, pretty lady, gonna make ya grieve
But the lovin' gonna make you mine...
