Lyrics for Indian Rope Man

Fog dangling thick Can't see the right road, streets are sick The eight-day mill, it might grind slow But it grinds fine Indian rope man, while looking on He tells Norman Clay he's heaven reborn Retired layman looks on in scorn With a transplanted heart Kiss him quick, he has to part Indian rope man sees the times Splitting loose the edge of minds Catching losers in his line, in his line Yeah, woah Mm, mm, mm Indian rope man flexes his eye Dissolving the fog, revealing the lie Indian rope man holds my trick in his heart Kiss him quick Indian rope man sees all strife Cutting down eternal life When his soul transcends his heart Oh, kiss him Oh, he has to part, he has to part Kiss him quick Gonna kiss him
