He's a Keeper of The Fire |
He’s as heavy as a lead weight, baby |
He’s as skinny as a wire |
He’s a prophet of a new day, baby |
He’s a keeper of the fire |
He’s got a funny kinda voodoo, baby |
You oughta see him at the zoo |
He’s got a heavy kinda hoodoo, baby |
And he can lay it on you |
He can say it like an angel, baby |
He can say it like a blowhorn |
He can see a-seven devils, baby |
And never even give a whole turn |
Been haunted like a razor, baby |
He’s been tested in the blood |
He’s a walker on the hot coals, baby |
And he’s a-heavenly bound |
I saw him walkin' in the valley, baby |
I could see him through the trees |
I saw him talkin' to the moon there, baby |
He was walkin' on his knees |
He can play it like a rainbow, baby |
He can play it like a clown |
He can play it like a river, baby |
And he can follow you down |
He’s as heavy as a lead weight, baby |
He’s as skinny as a wire |
He’s a prophet of a new day, baby |
He’s a keeper of the fire |
