American Aquarium - Rattlesnake - Live lyrics

Artist: American Aquarium

album: Live in Raleigh


She was born outside of Memphis, just north of Tupelo
Oh Lord, she's a Mississippi queen
And just like that big river
Oh Lord, she'll pull you under
She fights fire with gasoline
♪
Well, first time that I saw her down at the Whitewater
Old dance across them ancient hardwood floors
You could tell she had a history with cigarettes and whiskey
And boys that had a way with words
But I want to make that glorious mistake
Now she's got the kisses of a thousand angels
And the bite of a rattlesnake
♪
Much like my first occurrence with straight Kentucky bourbon
Oh Lord, she took my breath away
And when she called me darling, I started caterwhomping
And I had nothing else to say
But I want to make that glorious mistake
Oh, she's got the kisses of a thousand angels
And the bite of a rattlesnake
♪
And when she gets me all alone, she strikes the fear of Jesus
She sends that fear coursing through my blood
And when we hit the bedroom it's always fire and brimstone
Yes, I have been washed in the flood
But I want to make that glorious mistake
Oh, she's got the kisses of a thousand angels
And the bite of a rattlesnake, yeah
♪
Oh, she's got the kisses of a thousand angels
And the bite of a rattlesnake
♪
This is one of them slow jams
For the ladies
