Dream Spider

There is a spider in my dreams

Long and silent is his name

Cold as lightning is his smile

Final is his sting

His curse is deep as seven skies

Boys, I wouldn't tell you lies

The legends say he never sleeps

And he's never hungry long

He's got us, boys, I believe it's true

But I'm fightin' 'til he lays me down

Run his foul black body through

Cleave him all asunder

Now think your women, won't you boys

Think your mother growing old

Think about your darling son

Spittin' the spider's eye

Up at ease against him ride

We'll not take him by surprise

So give a scream down in your dreams

Let him know we're comin'

There is a spider in my dreams

Long and silent is his name

Cold as lightning is his smile

Final is his sting
