Palm Wine Drunkard

Well, you can drop me off in limbo

On your way to West Hill

I will give your regards to the moon and the stars

From the bottom of a wishing well

Sounds like you heard all my secrets

On that inside track

Oh, I laid it all bare, I left nothing to spare

And I'm never gonna take it back

But if you ever need for me to steal something for you

Just call my name on that inside track

You know my secrets and you got my number

I cross my heart that I'll never take it back

Just like a palm wine drunkard

Playin' ghost guitar

I will shake you right down and take you right back

To the place where you already are

Let's get that sweet little girl

Back on the snake you grew up on

Would you crank it up high?

Would you shoot out the lights?

Would you hand me down my Stratotone?

But if you ever need for me to steal something for you

Just call my name on that inside track

You know my secrets and you got my number

I cross my heart that I'll never take it back

I took it right down to the crossroads

I held my baby in my arms

And we danced till the dawn to those old Creole songs

And they slipped us into the right, bout to play zone

And then I kissed all my diamonds

I got my hands on the dice

I screamed and I raved

And I begged and I prayed

I could step into that river twice

But baby

Who do you think you're fooling?

Everybody knows and understands

You got me walkin' on pins and needles

Everybody knows that you're my man

You're my man
