I would risk the serpent's bite. I would dance around with seven. I would kiss the diamond back, If I knew it would get me to heaven.<p>'Cause I want… - Lucinda Williams

I was always into different kinds of music but just by default, I was singing and playing acoustic guitar; I didn’t know how to dance or anything. So it would take some time, over a year, for me to kind of progress into the stuff that I ended up doing later, the more Southern soul, country-rock, whatever-you-want-to-call-it kind of thing.

Not a day goes by I don't think about you;
You left your mark on me, it's permanent, a tattoo.
Pierce the skin and the blood runs through,
Oh my baby.

When you go, you let me know
If there's a Heaven out there.
When you leave me here to grieve
In pain and despair,
I've seen the face of hell.
I know that place pretty damn well.
But when you go, you'll let me know
If there's a Heaven out there.
