Blackwater Damned lyrics – official version by Burnin’ Bridges Ai Music.
This is the official lyrics video for Blackwater Damned.
Root-rot heavy on the soles of my work boots
Tracing out the veins where the black water shoots
Copper-head lullaby, singing in the tall weeds
I’m planting all the secrets where the soft mud bleeds
Iron in the soil, rust on the latch
Ain’t no escaping what the gray willows catch
Shadows grow long, teeth sharper than the briar
I’m holding onto sins like a coal from the fire
(Like a coal from the fire!)
This, that, and the other
Drowned out echo of a long-lost brother
Moss in the lungs and a soul in the gutter
The sky turns green when the night starts to stutter
This, that, and the other
Blackwater rising, watch the world smother
Sign on the line for the swamp and the cover
Outlaw opera, now I’m the lover (of the dark)
Stagnant pools reflecting eyes that shouldn’t be there
Smell of wet dog and sulfur in the thick air
Papa said the bayou takes what it wants to keep
Now I’m the one walking while the righteous are asleep
Got a jar of teeth and a heart made of cypress
Watching for the law with a cold, dead-eyed stillness
One for the mud
Two for the bone
Three for the king
On the driftwood throne
(He’s watching… he’s waiting…)
This, that, and the other
Drowned out echo of a long-lost brother
Moss in the lungs and a soul in the gutter
The sky turns green when the night starts to stutter
This, that, and the other
Blackwater rising, watch the world smother
Sign on the line for the swamp and the cover
Outlaw opera — the earth is my mother
The fields ain’t dead…
(Haha…)
