Snakebite

Too many shadows on the highway

So I go the old back road

I see a hangman digging someone's grave

Might be mine, I just don't know

Watch your step, boy, don't let

Your guard down around here

The devil always plays for keeps

You get off track, you turn your back

They'll put you in the ground here

And those fangs always go vein deep

It ain't the snake that you see

It's the one in the weeds

I hear the rattle in the distance

Sends a shiver down my spine

Sometimes I swear I feel them closing in

But I don't know if it's a stranger or a friend of mine

Watch your step, boy, don't let

Your guard down around here

The devil always plays for keeps

You get off track, you turn your back

They'll put you in the ground here

And those fangs always go vein deep

It ain't the snake that you see

It's the one in the weeds

Oh, the one in the weeds

Watch your step, boy, don't let

Your guard down around here

The devil always plays for keeps

You get off track, you turn your back

They'll put you in the ground here

Those fangs always go vein deep

It ain't the snake that you see

It's the one in the weeds

It's the one in the weeds
