Rattlesnake Songtext
von Abigail Lapell

Bring me water, bring me wine
Bring me flower garlands
Will you be my valentine
Would you be my darling?

Sew a penny in your shoe (sew a penny in your shoe)
Blessings on the journey
I′ll cut a lock of hair for you (I'll cut a lock of hair for you)
And keep the fire burning


And when you hear the meadowlark (When you hear the meadowlark)
Singing in the pasture (Singing in the pasture)
Gather roots and willow bark (Gather roots and willow bark)
Dandelion and aster


If you find a rattlesnake
Put it in your fiddle
Play it at the funeral wake
To keep away the devil
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Bring me water, bring me wine
Bring me flower garlands
Will you be my valentine (Will you be valentine)
Would you be my darling? (Would you be my darling?)
Would you be my darling?
