Ritual Songtext
von Michael Monroe

Tryin′ to paint my masterpiece
With no patron's golden fleece
Just heartbreak, love, blood, sweat
And methods to forget
I got a friend in Chinatown
Where I can lay my burden down
And see the smoke curl ′round in rings
Beneath a dragon's wings

I wanna shake (shake), shout (shout), shine a light
I wanna shake (shake), shout (shout), shine a light
I wanna shake (shake), shout (shout), all my life
I cut the blues with a sacred knife
My ritual
My ritual

Dead man lyin', rich man buyin′
Poor souls tryin′ and I got a blessed muse
What's my game then?
It′s all right brain then
Can't complain when you always answer my prayers


I wanna shake (shake), shout (shout), shine a light
I wanna shake (shake), shout (shout), shine a light
I wanna shake (shake), shout (shout), all my life
I′m down with the sacrifice

I wanna shake (shake), shout (shout), shine a light
I wanna shake (shake), shout (shout), shine a light
I wanna shake (shake), shout (shout), all my life
I cut the blues with a sacred knife
My ritual

I wanna shake (shake), shout (shout), shine a light
I wanna shake (shake), shout (shout), shine a light
I wanna shake (shake), shout (shout), all my life
I'm down with the sacrifice

I wanna shake (shake), shout (shout), shine a light
I wanna shake (shake), shout (shout), shine a light
I wanna shake (shake), shout (shout), all my life
I cut the blues with a sacred knife
My ritual
My ritual
My ritual...
