Swamp Battleground Blues

(umm-hmmm) Black water rising up to my knees

That old devil is howling in the trees

Got a pocketful of dust and a loaded gun Nowhere left for

a bad man to run Goddamn,

this heat is pulling me down

Stuck in the muck of this holy hell (yeah)

Breathing in the sulfur from a broken well

Don't give a damn about what you said

I'm already living like I'm fucking dead

Moss hanging down

like a dirty shroud

No use screaming,

the thunder's too loud

Whiskey in my throat,

lead in my chest

There ain't no peace,

there ain't no

rest

Fuck the law, they can't catch me here

Stuck in the muck of this holy hell

(oh lord) Breathing in the sulfur from a broken well

Don't give a damn about what you said

I'm already living like I'm fucking dead

Lost in the fog (down in the dirt)

Where the gators bite

(yeah, it hurts)

No light in the dark

No god in the swamp

Going

down...

down

under

(deep

in the mud)
