Kris Kristofferson

Look into water, see the barracuda
Patient as the devil
Hanging still
Like a shadow in the water
Pretty barracuda
Dagger of the devil
Waiting to kill

[Chorus:]
Little girl, beware of killer barracuda
He rules these waters like a king
He'll cut your heart out slicker than a dagger
Not 'cause he's hungry, 'cause he's mean

You can see the shark now
Glidin' through the water
Ugly as death
Eats anything
But the pretty barracuda, don't touch no leavin's
Takin' what he wants to
'Cause he's king
And you can't scare him or entice him
He won't move for the devil, till his own time
Then quicker than heartbeat
He'll turn you away, girl, just to
See you fall, and leave you dyin'

[Chorus]
