Mark Lanegan - Snake Song Lyrics
You can't hold me
I'm too slippery
I do no sleep in
I get lonely
You can touch me
I got poison
I just might bite you
Lie in circles
On the sunlight
Shine like diamonds
On a dark night
Ain't no mercy
In my smilin'
Only fangs and
Future, he don't
Try to find me
Skin I been through
Dies behind me
Solid hollow
Wrapped in hatred
Not a drop of
Venom wasted
You can slip in
Try to find me
Hold your breath and
Flat deny me
It makes no difference
To my thinkin'
I'll be here when
You start sinkin'.

Mark Lanegan Snake Song Comments
All I can think about are the gangstas from the 20s and 30s
Now I want to be a outlaw in the 1800s
This would be a good True Detective theme
Rad vibes from this song
I love this X)
A festival of advertisements
That guitar talking to me
Who bumping in 2018 ?
Thanks to this song I just want to travel by horseback or motorcycle from this point on... with a shotgun and pistol in tow. Maybe even sign up for various Sheriff departments....
Jason Bourne 😂 same here!!

nice song.
Townes,one of my favorite song writers 'GENIOUS' glad to hear newer artist cover or hear Towneses influence on them.
R.I.P. TVZ......
God, I love this song. EVERY. FUCKING.VERSION. I first heard this song on the film Lawless, the Emmylou Harris cover of it. Then I heard the orginal by Townes Van Zandt on the film Cavalry. I just discovered this version today, and I like it, not as much as the other two, but its still pretty damn epic.
Love your style guys
Well done. Beautiful.
Let it be known this is a Townes Van Zandt number. And a damn good version at that.
The Bootleggers Feat: Ralph Stanley-Fire in the blood
mat11trick Aye bro check out my last punisher video tell me what ya think 😉
love it! best townes van zandt cover in a long time.
As a priest, this song makes me want to pull a gun and shoot up a bar.
A sneaky Calvary reference I see
+Felix Carter Good man
thought priests shoot up choir boys butts?
The love gives bearth and death. As not as a priest just as a working man.
-comfortably numb
😅😅😅
!!!!!!!!!!!
Snakes do not have poison. They have venom.
Venom and poison are synonymous get over yo' self
But this is where you are wrong. They are two different, but similar things.
True, but poison is simply venom from a different source.
Well, whatever we call heroin.
Yeah but ain't venom poisonous? Or can you inject venom extracted from the glands of, uh... a cottonmouth or a rattlesnake (I know cottonmouths, so I'm sticking to it) into your body with a big vet rig without getting some sort of blood poisoning? Like if you don't suck it out, stop it from traversing through your bloodstream , get some kind of medicine, your blood is all good, it's not spreading this poison from snake venom coursing through your veins and arteries and quickly turning your blood septic? I mean, heroin isn't poison. But, uh... just saying. Snake venom is the vehicle through which a snake can poison its prey or defend itself from predators. It ain't poisonous to the snake, but sure seems to be an issue for Mickey and Mallory Knox...
I absolutely love this song!!
that bluesy riff....new trousers
These two make love, I mean music with so much feeling.
Personally Lanegan is my fav artist.
that sounds like a townes van zandt song...
That's because it is a Townes van Zandt song : ) A cover version anyway.
ON SUNDAY I WILL SEE THEM LIVE IN ATHENS yeeaaaaah..
