‘Hell's Gate’ - taken from the new album ‘Put The Shine On’, out now on Marathon Artists. Listen to the album 'Put The Shine On': __ Follow CocoRosie: __ Lyrics: From the cracking of the whip Nanny worked down at the shop lifting hell's gate, she lifted hell's gate From the cracking of the whip Pappy worked down at the shipyard, jail mate, jail mate Toss a penny to the sky, heads or tails, who knows, not I False alarm, narrow escape, nearly got my cousin raped Hell's gate, feathers ruffle hell's gate Shoot the cat, shoot the crow, empty pocket seed to sew Daddy wore his baggies low, stinky long john From the cracking of the whip Nanny worked down at the shop lifting hell's gate, she lifted hell's gate From the cracking of the whip Pappy worked down at the shipyard, jail mate, jail mate Shoot the cat, shoot the crow, toss a penny, make it grow Take the shine off, take the shine off Toss a penny to the sky, heads or tails, who knows, not I Time to pass on in them chips, if the shoe never fit Toss a penny to the sky, heads or tails to live or die Time to pass on in them chips, if you've given your last wish My momma taught me how to pray I didn't know who to blame or who to thank I see her face in the clouds, pick a feather from the ground Try to make my momma proud, what would she say to you? Shoot the cat, shoot the crow, toss a penny, make it grow Take the shine off, take the shine off From the cracking of the whip Pappy worked down at the shipyard, jail mate, jail mate Toss a penny to the sky, heads or tails, who knows, not I Time to pass on in them chips, if the shoe never fits Toss a penny to the sky, heads or tails, to live or die Time to pass on in them chips, if you've given your last wish Time to pass on in them chips, if you've given your last wish
