Swampblood Lyrics – The Legendary Shack Shakers

Swampblood Text

---

Way down in Toxarcana, I was ten years old,
In a fever dream, dark night of the soul.
Well, it was brillig and the slithey toves
I bid the world good-bye by the dead bog oaks.

Drop down in the Swampblood
Drop down in the blood
Well, I'm washed in the Swampblood
I'm washed in the blood.

Hey!!

Well dusty bibles lead to a dirty south.
He's sittin' with a toadstool rotting in his mouth

In a clearing where the bras hang down from the trees,
He's cappin' a coffee can full of teeth.

Drop down in the Swampblood
Drop down in the blood
I'm washed in the Swampblood
I'm washed in the blood.

Down Doom's Chapel Road, past his great grandma,
She says "turn 'im loose, or I'll call the law."
He says "There's no testimony without the test,
What we do with our own is our own damn business."

Drop down in the Swampblood
Drop down in the blood
I'm washed in the Swampblood
I'm washed in the blood.

Drop down in the Swampblood
Drop down in the blood
I'm washed in the Swampblood
I'm washed in the blood.
