When the crane flies through the marsh
And the toes are on the shells
Where the water rat goes swimmin'
That's where my swamp girl dwells

Where the sunlight never wanders
And the moon no longer falls
With the water, black as the devils breath
That's where my swamp girl calls

What did she say there?
With her golden hair
To make me follow her?
In the plot of the devil

How she did kiss me?
When she took me by the hand?

Why her hair floats on the water
And the gold no longer shines
Spread like a fan on the water
While she wasted this thing inside

I have heard that sign
And seen the sparkle in your eye
