A ragged, nightmarish, tear-up driving guitars rocker.
lyrics
Cut through the night, baby what do you see? Watchin’ a fate come troublin’ me
Got the night sweats, I twist and I squirm
A dark black beauty, red mouth turning the worm
Ah hah, ah hah
Black dog – jaw’s red
Ah hah, ah hah,
Whoa... and I’m cut to the quick
Can’t lie still – freight train burstin’ my head
Cross-hair vision, see nothin’ but dread Back door scratchin’, endurance run dry
I’m prayin’ sweet Jesus, don’t turn no blind eye
Ah hah, ah hah
Black dog, mean trick
Ah hah, ah hah
And I’m still cut to the quick
Through red mist eyes
Dawns a hungry sky
Whoa, chill wind she cries
Mama please - tell me why
Got me in a vice, I can taste your love germ
A dark black beauty, red mouth turns the worm
White flag up pole, my endurance run dry
I’m prayin’ sweet Jesus – don’t turn no blind eye
I’m prayin’ sweet Jesus – don’t turn no blind eye
I’m prayin’ sweet Jesus – don’t turn no blind eye
Ah hah, ah hah
Black dog – night sweats
Ah hah, ah hah
Whoa...
Ah hah, ah hah,
Hell’s hound – jaw’s wet
Ah hah, ah hah,
Whoa...
And I’m cut to the quick
