Slackjaw Jezebel Lyrics - Gov't Mule

Babies were crying before you got here 

I believe they're crying still 

The world as we know, it keeps right on turning 

I guess it always will 

Still something's changed, I hate to admit it 

I ain't been the same since you came around 

My mind is swollen from the weariness 

Wish you'd never flagged me down 

Twisted angel cast out of some strange heaven 

Sent down here to pull me out of my shell 

You show up on my doorstep, honey dripping from your mouth 

Like some slackjaw jezebel 

Flesh and bones is all I'm made of 

I couldn't have stopped you if I tried 

Spell you were casting way too heavy 

Now I can't be satisfied

But you think you're going to save me, you better think again 

I've had saviors galore 

And although you are a vision, an angel wrapped in sin 

I've seen it all before 

Twisted angel cast out of some strange heaven 

Sent down here, landed on my window still 

Now you're walking through my back door, honey dripping from your mouth 

Like some slackjaw jezebel 

You've got your bag of dust, your divining rod 

I wonder how I got myself here 

Wheel's spinning faster and I know I got to jump off 

I guess I'm weighing the fire against the fear 

You spoon-fed my ego, made me feel so young 

Kissed me 'til my lips were sore 

But I know you're just a jezebel with a poisonous tongue 

I've been down this road before 

Photos 

It's full of twisted angels, cast out of some strange heaven 

Sent down here to put me through hell 

You show up on my doorstep, honey dripping from your mouth 

Like some slackjaw jezebel, oh, like some slackjaw jezebel
