Cask Mouse Vultures
The vultures, are circling around
Picking up the dead that's on the ground
Spiraling slowly they're sinking right down
The vultures, are circling around
The vultures, they don't know your name
They only want what is to remain
And if you can't find water in the desert untamed
The vultures, they don't know your name
If you're walking alone to the setting of the sun
All you've got is your thoughts and the safety of your gun
Make sure you pack a canteen and say your best goodbye
You never know which day that you may die
The vultures, they won't tell you the truth
They'll be sure to smile back at you
They won't let you keep the gold that you have in your tooth
The vultures, they won't tell you the truth
The vultures are looming over head
Picking up the remnants of the dead
They aren't going to listen, to any prayers you've said
The vultures are looming over head
If you're walking alone to the setting of the sun
All you've got is your thoughts and the safety of your gun
Make sure you pack a canteen and say your best goodbye
You never know which day that you may die
The vultures are always wanting more
They profit from the worst of times in war
They don't care how many die, no they ain't keeping score
The vultures are always wanting more
The vultures will let you die alone
They don't care which land you call your own
You know they won't be satisfied till they see the white of bone
The vultures will let you die alone
If you're walking alone to the setting of the sun
All you've got is your thoughts and the safety of your gun
Make sure you pack a canteen and say your best goodbye
You never know which day that you may die
