SNAKE KILLER-words and music Jon Clark

Charg'n down a trail, got that look in his eye, he's a roadrunner
Beat'n down that dust, where the sun don't let up, he's a roadrunner
and he's tired of kill'n, them snakes he don't mind
it's just a profession, one of a kind

Movin' out those legs, down the road straight and wide, he's a roadrunner
Passin' by them rocks, just a blur we can't see, he's a roadrunner
and he stops by a cactus, one button or two?
there's snakes all around him, "how do you do"

"I don't know if you know, that I kill things like you, I'm a roadrunner"
"Tell me can't you see, that I'm fast please believe, I'm a roadrunner"
but those snakes kept on comin', slow they may be
they'll challenge any bird, on pe-yo-te

Charg'n down a trail, got that look in his eye, he's a roadrunner
Beat'n down that dust, where the sun don't let up, he's a roadrunner
and he's tired of kill'n, them snakes he don't mind
it's just a profession, one of a kind
