Keith Paluso - Toad Strangler Blues

Hit the ground running
About three days ago
With a dog on our trail
And an ivory-butt pistol

I said one step
Two step
Three steps in time
Gotta make it back home to see my baby, yeah

Whoa, Lord
Here comes a toad strangler
Time to settle down
Under the shade of those trees
And I'll be praying to God
That the lightning doesn't come
Got metal on my hands and on my feet

Well we'll
Hold up here in this
Apple field
Was a nice day's rest while we
Ate our fill
Then the dogs came running
Warden came a' hauling
Time to hit the trail 'fore they skin your hide, yeah

Whoa, Lord
Here comes a toad strangler
Time to settle down
Under the shade of those trees
And I'll be praying to God
That the lightning doesn't come
Got metal on my hands and on my feet
Got metal on my hands and on my feet

Well, old man winked and he turned a blind eye
Me and my budd said it's time to fly
Back to the feeling of a woman's touch
Nice warm bed, we don't ask for much
Came that rain on a thursday night
Torches was out, we thought we could hide
Well I don't think we'll go back to the pen
From the sound of that shotgun, looks like the end

Whoa, Lord
Here comes a toad strangler
Time to settle down
Under the shade of those trees
And I'll be praying to God
That the lightning doesn't come
Got metal on my hands and on my feet
I said
Whoa, Lord
Here comes a toad strangler
Time to settle down
Under the shade of those trees
And I'll be praying to God
That the lightning doesn't come
Got metal on my hands and on my feet
Got metal on my hands and on my feet
Got metal on my hands and on my feet
