Lyrics Hunter goes to the sacred ground up on a mountain see the man spellbound king of the snakes is what he found but it didn’t make a motion didn’t make one sound wrapped the serpent up in a holy shroud throw it on his back bring it back to town set a stage up for a fearful crowd people will come from miles around women and children singing oh my lord all the people running screaming oh my lord everybody gather both rich and poor and more and more and more come pouring crowd starts roaring sun comes shining sound and lights will stir the giant snake awake and people crying ropes are broken people dying terrified and paralyzed the ground starts to shake and everybody running frantically the fear will overtake and an intoxicated ego always makes the mistake hunters getting crushed in the mouth of the snake
