"DH"
He awoke
It was sunny
The night soak
Drank his whiskey
Got the joke
Said, "this is funny"
Why ain't I bleeding
In the dust of Evasion City
Doc Holliday do not grow
Doc Holliday do not die
Drive each moment to weariness
Yaksma I am your friend
I will follow you to the end
To the cave of the hunchbacks
They'll play their flutes
And we can dance
To do some slinging and dealing
There goes Big Nose Kate
In John Shaughnessy's Saloon
She's the rocky one for you
She'll save you from the hangman
And call the ravens down
To feed on the flesh of the slain
Under your heels
Outcast from the green forest
Loudly your hair turns white
Lax into the bloodland
Riding the griffin
Without rhythm bones
Doc Holliday, where did your mama go
She can hear you coughing up
The good king's blood
On heaven's mirrors
Reflecting the hat people
With golden pitiful eyes
In the shaking hut
Their angry screams
Healing...
And we can dance
In the name of the ground
To do some slinging and dealing
There goes Big Nose Kate
In John Shaughnessy's Saloon
She's the rocky one for you
She'll save you from the hangman
And call the ravens down
To feed on the flesh of the slain
Under your heels
Doc Holliday do not grow
Doc Holliday do not die
Drive each moment to weariness
Yaksma I am your friend
I will follow you to the end
To the cave of the hunchbacks
They'll play their flutes
And we can dance
In the name of the ground
I do magic
