The Rattle Within

[Verse 1]
Oh, holy man save you from a dance with the Devil
Jesus save you from the bottle of gin
Voodoo save you from a sleepwalk woman
Who's gonna save you from the rattle within?

[Verse 2]
Well, that voice might come when you're taking your pleasure
The voice might come when you're resting your bones
Seek you out when you're sad or smiling
Drags you down when you think you're alone

[Chorus]
Just when you think that your horses are running
Just when you think that you're fixing to win
There's that wandering deep inside you
Who's gonna save you from the rattle within?
Save me, save me, save me
From the rattle within

[Verse 3]
He wears your shirt and he wears your shoes
He's living right there inside your skin
You've got notions, he's got notions
Who's gonna save you from the rattle within?

[Verse 4]
Well, a man's made of muscle
And he's gonna wrestle
But when he gets weary, he ain't gonna win
Who's gonna save you when the tank is empty?
Who's gonna save you from the rattle within?

[Chorus]
Ah, just when you think that your horses are ready
Just when you think that you're fixing to win
There's that wandering deep inside you
Who's gonna save you from the rattle within?
Save me, save me, save me
From the rattle within

[Verse 1]
Well, holy man save you from a dance with the Devil
Jesus save you from the bottle of gin
Voodoo save you from a sleepwalk woman
Who's gonna save you from the rattle within?
Who's gonna save you from the rattle within?
Who's gonna save you from the rattle within?
