Dire Wolf Lyrics

Cover art for Dire Wolf lyrics by Grateful Dead

i think it's about getting what you deserve...living it rough, gambling, drinking, doing whatever, and then begging not to be engulfed by the ginormous hole you've dug for yourself.

When I awoke, the Dire Wolf, six hundred pounds of sin, Was grinning at my window, all I said was "Come on in".

if you let six hundred pounds of sin into your life you have to face the consequences. my favourite line is "In the backwash of Fennario, the black and bloody mire, The Dire Wolf collects his dues"
