Day of the Dead

What's the price
On the hangman's head
And will you join him
In the Dance of the Dead
All of your masquerades have burned
And none of your Lords have returned
And your fountain of youth has dried up
El Dia De Los Muertos
All you saints
And you sinners, too
All of your deeds
Will catch up to you
All of your masquerades have burned
And none of your Lords have returned
And your fountain of youth has dried up
El Dia De Los Muertos
What will you do
When it all catches up to you
And on the Day of the Dead
What's the price on your head
All of your masquerades have burned
And none of your Lords have returned
And your fountain of youth has dried up
El Dia De Los Muertos

Sin and Vice

It's a dark night, baby, from dusk 'til dawn
Tired of you always doin' right
So it's about time you do some wrong
Why don't you slither and crawl on over here
And I'll show you the kinda man that you need to fear
Demon woman on my mind
'Cause the divine kind is hard to find
It's a long, long, long road to Hell
'Least I got a God damn tale to tell
I've got all you could ever want, need or desire
But you gotta know I'm a cheat, outlaw and liar
I'm a snake-oil salesman who's been run out of town
It's a wicked night, baby, gonna take you down
Demon woman on my mind
'Cause the divine kind is hard to find
It's a long, long, long road to Hell
'Least I got a God damn tale to tell

Crossroads
05:50
|

|
Gravedigger, don't dig so deep
Hounds of Hell lookin' for a soul to keep
Preacher, no need to preach
I sinned too long for my soul to reach
Undertaker, take me all the way down
Down to the funeral grounds
You get what you pay for
And you lose what you pray for
Never wander and never roam
Unless you've got no place to call your own
Never gamble and never cheat
'Cause what lies in wait at the crossroads you ain't never wanna meet
You get what you pay for
And you lose what you pray for
Gravedigger, don't dig so deep
Hounds of Hell lookin' for a soul to keep
Preacher, no need to preach
I sinned too long for my soul to reach
Undertaker, take me all the way down
Down to the funeral grounds

Burden
06:00

This noose that you've got me hangin' from
Oh, it hangs too low
This cross that I bear
Is my burden alone
Oh, Lord I'm comin' home some other day
'Cause I got some business here so I've got to stay
I sold my soul
To the wrong kinda man
I was reborn
In blood
Oh, Lord I'm comin' home some other day
'Cause I got some business here so I've got to stay
On hollow ground
I hear
There's a storm on the way

All Through The Night
03:07

The crimson moon
The howl of the wolves
The rattle of the snakes
This is where sanity breaks
We'll ride all through the night
We'll burn at dawn's first light
The crimson moon
Fortunes heard
Fortunes told
This love is centuries old
We'll ride all through the night
We'll burn at dawn's first light
You don't know where I've been or where I'm going now
You don't have what it takes to follow me down
We'll ride all through the night
We'll burn at dawn's first light

The strange and the bizarre
The end of the line ain't too far
Swamp blood revival
Got my revolver, bullet and my Bible
Give in to your curiosities
And behold these sideshow oddities
The devil ain't got nothin' on me, no
Ooh, Lord have mercy
Evil's got a hold on you
Well, how 'bout that?
Ain't nothin' I can do
The holy ghost said to Lucifer
"Let me absolve her sins, let me save her"
And the devil said
"Ain't nothin' left to mend, ooh, 'cause she's been with The Reverend"
Give in to your curiosities
And behold these sideshow oddities
The devil ain't got nothin' on me, no
Ooh, Lord have mercy
Evil's got a hold on you
Well, how 'bout that?
Ain't nothin' I can do

Be careful what you wish for
'Cause it just might end up on your floor
Mind to whom you pray
'Cause the Underworld is on it's way
The Underworld beckons
Come whatever may
Something wicked this way comes
Laid down to eternally rest
The corpse and the casket
There's nowhere to run
There's nowhere to hide
The Underworld beckons
And I'll see you on the other side
Something wicked this way comes

Snake eyes and a dead man's hand
Wayward travelers be damned
Cheap thrills are not a sin
As long as the house always wins
Redemption
Salvation
Temptation lie ahead
Take a chance and roll the dice
Nevermind the stakes, nevermind the price
Pray to those above to cheat the odds below
Where your bet lies, well, only I know
Redemption
Salvation
Temptation lie ahead

The Last Dance
02:53
|
|||
|
The stars are out tonight
I've never felt so alive
It's a shame it had to
It's a shame it had to end
The stars are out tonight
The way that you move in the moonlight
Her crimson kiss steals
Her crimson kiss steals
Her crimson kiss steals my last breathe
And the last dance is
And the last dance is
And the last dance is on your grave

Cemetery Boogie
03:51
|

|
Lived too damn fast
Died too damn young
Joined the Bordello with a loaded gun
They took my baby
Then they came after me
Cowboy from hell
Made 'em pray to me
Resurrect me
Cemetery boogie
Had a femme fatale
Lady in a red dress
She was a scandalous tale
I was her last caress
The eternal ride back
Ain't a ride to hitch
Motherfucker went back
A mean son of a bitch
Resurrect me
Cemetery boogie

Curio Chicago
Curio is a hell-raisin' and soul-shakin' bastard blues band from Chicago, IL. Their music is steeped in southern gothic lore by way of the Midwest. Heavily influenced by the growl of Chicago blues, the low-down and dirty swamp rock of Louisiana and the twang of Tennessee country, Curio conjures a sound that has as many influences as there are miles on I-55 from The Windy City to The Big Easy. ... more
