By townes van zandt
There is a spider in my dreamsLong and silent is his nameCold as lightning is his smileFinal is his sting
His curse is deep as seven skiesBoys, I wouldn't tell you liesThe legends say he never sleepsHe's never hungry long
He's got us, boys, I believe it's trueBut I'm fighting till he lays me downRun his foul black body throughCleave him all asunder
Think your women, won't you boys,Think your mother growing oldThink about your darling sonSpittin' the spider's eye
Up (at ease) against him rideWe'll not take him by surpriseGive a scream down in your dreamsLet him know we're comin'
There is a spider in my dreamsLong and silent is his nameCold as lightning is his smileFinal is his sting
