Ox Baker Triumphant Lyrics
Ox Baker Triumphant - The Mountain Goats
Written by：John Darnielle
I will rise from the swamp
Where they dumped my private plane
I'll be clutching the life
Preserver
In my teeth
And I will find
The highway
And I will flag down a truck
Worry lines on my forehead
Blank stare underneath
And when I come
Back to town
I'm gonna cast my burden down
A little worse for wear
Practically walking on air
I will thank
My ride
And crawl my way back inside
To the guts of the building
Where my enemies
Hide in the dark like roaches
And I will signal the camera crew
And everyone will do
What he's been trained how to do
Sweat dripping from my face
As my moment approaches
Click your heels count to three
I bet you never expected me
A little worse for wear
Practically walking on air
