Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Tin roof rattles in the black sky wind
Bare feet slappin' on a warped old floor
Grandma's Bible open to the plague page
Grinnin'
Says
"Boy
That thunder's knockin' at your door"
[Chorus]
We gon' rock your socks off
Leave 'em on the gallows
Hangin' from the live oak
Swingin' in the shadows (hey)
Bones in the choir
Hellhounds in the loft
You came for a hymn
We came to rock your socks off
[Verse 2]
Mud on the steps
Dead vines on the shutters
Chandelier twitch with the heartbeat sound
Choir robes drag like black-winged buzzards
Floorboards chant
"Turn it up
Burn it down"
[Chorus]
We gon' rock your socks off
Leave 'em on the gallows
Hangin' from the live oak
Swingin' in the shadows
Candles spit blood-red wax as they scoff
You pray for a way out
We just rock your socks off
[Bridge]
Left your shoes at the door
Left your soul on the porch
Now the swamp got your steps
And the storm got your torch
[Chorus]
We gon' rock your socks off
Peel the paint
Shake the cross
Rattle every window till the stained glass pops off (yeah)
If you walk outta here
You won't walk off the shock
'Cause the devil's in the rafters screamin'
"Rock their socks off!"
We gon' rock their socks off
We gon' rock your socks off
