Artist/Band: Walkabouts
Lyrics for Song: Snake Mountain Blues
Lyrics for Album: New West Motel [1996]



Mr. ten dollar man

Let me tell you where you're bound

When you drink your green liquor

Lord, you'll roll to the ground



But you come around here

With your money in your hand

Tasted my woman

You'll die where you stand



Snake Mountain's gonna crumble

Lord, and fall from the sky

'Til that woman of mine

Keeps on telling her lies



If I'd die Lord, she'd weep

And she'd weep and she'd mourne

As soon as I was buried

Forget I been born



Well my daddy, he rides on a long holy train

And the first winds of winter

Well, I'll see him again



And it's goodbye to that yellow-headed misery I've known

Snake Mountain is callin'

Is callin' me home



Got the Snake Mountain blues X4



Got the Snake Mountain blues X4



*[One verse of the original is left out.

It goes something like this:



Well the Snake Mountain blues

Have got me down low

I could die in the morning

And no one would know

Well, my woman comes 'round

My body she'd found

Go down to Dundee

(And) Have her a time]
