Boland Jason - Rattlesnakes lyrics

I had the blues so bad one time, I hated my whole life I walked around with my head hung down in shame All I saw were clouded skies, I could not find the light And I told myself that woman was to blame Well it all seems so different now, as it did when I was a child When I could not see the dangers in some things Man plans on livin' very long, he best learn some respect For those rattlesnakes, painted ladies, and c**aine There's lots of things in this whole world, bring a poor boy down If you lead me you can save yourself some pain You don't have to live in fear, but you better learn some respect For those rattlesnakes, painted ladies, and c**aine Well only a natural fool would take a rattlesnake to bed But that rattler, he'll warn you before he strikes And c**aine will sneak up on you, and pretend to be a friend It'll be more deadly that that vipers bite The painted lady, she'll come to you, when you're all alone She seems to bring some comfort to the night It's when you come to depend on her, well she'll be up and gone And then you'll know what dying slow feels like There's lots of things in this whole world, bring a poor boy down If you lead me you can save yourself some pain You don't have to live in fear, but you better learn some respect For those rattlesnakes, painted ladies, and c**aine These are just a few examples, the list goes on and on A million things that could drive a man insane You don't have to live in fear, but keep an open eye For those rattlesnakes, painted ladies, and c**aine For those rattlesnakes, painted ladies, and c**aine For those rattlesnakes, painted ladies, and c**aine
