Lyrics Neptune Brothers - The Devil and the Almighty Blues

Neptune Brothers

You move like trouble down the mountain
Dreams on the river
A snake in the bloodstream
Winds that make me shiver
Keep your eyes on the horizon
Hands on the lever
Hide everything and everyone
Bury it forever
The mane of the mare you cling to
Hair white as silver
Fingers break and let go
Fall out into winter
Break the stone break the bone
Go on swing the hammer
Grind mountains to dust
Choke life out of summer
Settle down and settle up
Pay what is owed
Lay your hands upon the barrel
Chop them off and go
Tongue sharp as glass
Cuts me over and over
With the whip of a serpent
Caress me like a lover
