Valley of Death -Blitzen Trapper Written by :Eric Earley I know what it means to get knocked down drunk I was lying in a bush by the coal Where the river runs deep And the demons don't sleep And the water's obscured by the smoke Well I drug myself to the river's edge And I drank like a dog on the sand It burned my tongue My whole head gets spun And I stood on the stone And spoke to the wind and the rain Said I know what it means to get left for dead When the saints rise up at the sound When the spirits don't move in Their chains and the shoes And the crack of the guns all around I know how it is to get all dressed up Where nobody would know where to go With a fifth in your vest And some pills on your tongue And a gun looking out across The valley of the shadow below oh Well I preached to the bums And I preached to the birds Til the crowd had started to form My disciples that came Through the wind and the rain And the rags in their jackets all torn Well I prophesized of the things to come And I jumped like a bug on a wall Til my head it was through With the river's strange brew And I sunk to my knees in the breeze And I started to pray I said hey You know I ain't got a dang thing to say With a head full of booze and nothing to loose For a creature was made out of clay hey Said I know what it means to get left for dead When the saints rise up at the sound When the spirits don't move in Their chains and the shoes And the crack of the guns all around I know how it is to get all dressed up Where nobody would know where to go With a fifth in your vest And some pills on your tongue And a gun looking out across The valley of the shadow below oh编辑于2023/12/23更新
