Staying Back

Lyrics from John Steinbeck's "The Pearl"

When Kino woke up it was still dark
The stars were still shining in the sky
The birds were singing
The pigs were looking for something to eat

He puts on his sandals and went outside
when Kino woke up it was still dark
when Kino woke up it was still dark

A scorpion's tail has a sting in the end
A sting that can kill
He could not move until the scorpion moved
but it was too late
the scorpion bit when Kino woke up

A scorpion's tail has a sting in the end
A sting that can kill
the scorpion moved
but it was too late

A sting that can kill
He could not move until the scorpion moved
but it was too late

the scorpion bit when Kino woke up
