Red Mosquito

Watched from the window with a red mosquito...
I was not allowed to leave the room...
I saw the sun go down, and now it's comin' up...
Somewhere in the time between...

I was bitten...must have been the devil...
He was just payin' me...
A little visit, a-reminding me of his presence...
Lettin' me know...he's a-waitin' for me...

Red man's your neighbor, call it behavior...
While you're climbing up slippery hills...
Two steps ahead of him, punctures in your neck...
Hoverin' just above your bed... (2x)
I was bitten...must have been the devil...
He was just paying me...
A little visit, reminding me of his presence...
And lettin' me know...he's a-waitin'...he's a-waitin'...
Up there...yeah...

If I had known then what I now know... (4x)
