Emmylou Harris - Snake Song lyrics

You can't hold me I'm too slippery I do no sleepin' I get lonely you can touch me if you want to I got poison I just might bite you Lie in circles on the sunlight shine like diamonds on a dark night ain't no mercy in my smilin' only fangs and sweet beguiling Future, he don't try to find me skin I been through dies behind me solid hollow wrapped in hatred not a drop of venom wasted You can slip in try to find me hold your breath and flat deny me it makes no difference to my thinkin' I'll be here when you start sinkin'
