Sidewinder Lyrics

It came in

Like a sidewinder

And shook me right out of place

I finally gathered the right words

But my tongue won't even hold its shape

She's meeting me with peculiar stares

And I ain't surprised by that

Caught in a battle of unsettled cares that leave the water flat

I think I'm bogged down, I think I'm tired

And I've been walking, walking the wire

You seem so straight and I'm on fire

Are you walking, walking the wire?

It came in

Like a sidewinder from the sweet underbelly of a past life

With no trace of that formidable haze that keeps me passing the time by

She said "Now why's that look upon your face?"

She said "Now wipe that look up off your face?"

I said "No it ain't subject to change 'cause I'm feeling I'll always be the same"

I think I'm bogged down, I think I'm tired

And I've been walking, walking the wire

You seem so straight and I'm on fire

Are you walking, walking the wire?

You seem so straight and I'm on fire

Are you walking, walking the wire?

You seem so straight and I'm on fire

Are you walking, walking the wire?

You seem so straight and I'm on fire

Are you walking, walking the wire?

You seem so straight and I'm on fire

Are you walking, walking the wire?

I think I'm bogged down, I think I'm tired

And I've been walking, walking the wire

You seem so straight and I'm on fire

Are you walking, walking the wire?
