Knucklebones Lyrics

When the fire burns
'Neath a zombie moon
You feel the winds of change
Oh the drums will tell the tune
And you know it's true, baby

Can you feel the heat
Of the setting sun
Burning up the street
This beat has got mixed blood
And I know it too

But now her mama's got the eyes
Like she's workin' on a heartattack
A fella never can tell
And I'm about to go bananas
With the "When ya comin' back?"

So we're hittin' the road
And we're pumpin' thunder
Mama look out for down below
Get the show on the road
It's a feeling we're under
You can feel it right down
To your Knucklebones

One of these dark nights
As the story goes
There's some dirty work
To be done down by the crossroads
And I know it's true

Ain't no use waitin'
For your invitation
King Kong never had it so clean
We'll do the fat cat shake
We'll have our cake and eat it too
You could never, no, no, no, never
Beat this squeeze!

Because we're hittin' the road
And we're pumpin' thunder
Mama, look out for down below
Get the show on the road
It's really no wonder
You can feel it right down
To your Knucklebones

Must be the heat
Uh oh, uh oh
Stop dreamin' and start drivin' Stevie!
