The Brudi Brothers - Serpent Lullaby (Live From The Hideout)

I met a lady on a windy day She never seemed to have too much to say Through the shouting and the swell I couldn't really tell Still in love I fell

Once she showed me to her living room It looked to me more like a lover's tomb Filled with others' tears Evil souvenirs Collected through the years

She said, would you stay another night I can sing my serpent lullaby Not a single ugly thing Only butterflies on wing Blossoms in the spring

Truth is only there for me to know Hold on tightly dear and don't let go Baby, I don't want to fight If you leave me in the night You will feel my poison bite

Let me tell you friends I've been a fool To love a lady who I knew could be so cruel But if it had been you, you'd have fallen too There's nothing you could do

She'd say would you stay another night I can sing my serpent lullaby Not a single ugly thing Only butterflies on wing Blossoms in the spring
