lyrics
Way down south on the river Mississippi
No crocodile tears, only alligator drippies
The reeds grow tall and the grass grows wide
And the water calls you home
Deep in the marsh lives a timeless being
Only takes what is given willingly
Flesh traded for immortality
A barter worth its weight
Late at night when the moon is full
And the creatures come down to the watering hole
An offering of blood and an offering of bone
To bind you to this world
Oh oh the tithing takes its toll
Oh oh you'll never be quite whole
Oh oh the tithing takes its toll
Oh oh you'll never be quite whole
Eyes like pits and teeth like knives
Scales like stones and tongue of brine
Ever shall he live and never shall he die
The gator god of souls
Jaws open wide better face your fears
A finger eaten up for a hundred years
Dry your blood and dry your tears
Your life source is renewed
Oh oh the gator god of souls
Oh oh the price for immortals
Oh oh the tithing takes its toll
Oh oh you'll never be quite whole
This contract can't be signed with ink
You're soul bound and forever linked
A hunger that will never cease
An endless lust for time
Four hundred thirty summers past
Only fools say life's too fast
Born before the looking glass
I walk this planet still
Oh oh the gator god of souls
Oh oh the price for immortals
Oh oh the tithing takes its toll
Oh oh you'll never be quite whole
