Spirit Wire

[Verse 1] Fire in the steel pot Black smoke in the blue dawn Old drums on the wet dirt Calling names that been long gone Salt ring on the cracked floor Red cord ’round my bare wrist Grandma say “don’t stare long When the air start to twist” [Chorus] Vudu pipl Circle tight (eh-eh) Bare feet stamping through the night (oh yeah) Eyes roll back See the sign Ride that shadow Cross that line Vudu pipl Light the flame Call me soft Call my name If I answer If I stay Let the river wash me away [Verse 2] Mask carved from a drift wood White chalk on a brown face Cold wind in a hot room Strange laughter filling up the place Three knocks on the back door Dog howl Then it sit still Some truth taste like strong rum Burn slow Bend your will [Chorus] Vudu pipl Circle tight (circle tight) Bare feet stamping through the night (through the night) Eyes roll back See the sign Ride that shadow Cross that line Vudu pipl Light the flame Call me soft Call my name If I answer If I stay Let the river wash me away [Bridge] Who you trust when the lights cut? Who you be when the mask shut? (hey!) Ash fall soft on the red cloth Heart beat deep like a war drum [Chorus] Vudu pipl Circle tight Bare feet stamping through the night Eyes roll back See the sign Ride that shadow Cross that line Vudu pipl Light the flame Call me soft Call my name If I answer If I stay Let the river wash me away
