Iron And Wine The Rooster Moans Lyrics

The Rooster Moans Lyrics

Crack of dawn the rooster moans

Wake up boy you're far from home

Serpentine the tracks in flames

Longest path the devil laid

Led
you straight aboard this rusty train



Lift your head 'cause you
can't sleep

Bite your lip 'cause you can't eat

Darkest den the
devil made

Jesus weeps but he's been paid

Not to ride inside this
rusty train



Buzzard's breath the rooster moans

Stow it boy
you're far from home

Stow your sorrows stow your fear

What'd you do
to end up here

End up on the devil's rusty train
