The old man turned and scratched his chin |
|
He said "Son, I wouldn't know where to begin, but your daddy's gone, |
|
He's gone down south... it was all he would talk about" |
|
We never blamed it on the soil |
|
Or the sunburned earth |
|
Or the prices of the oil |
|
This border town is my home |
|
I got rattlesnake guts |
|
In a desert full of bones |
|
Tell my sister I've gone and to find someone |
|
Cause I won't come back no more, no more |
|
Lord I see red and it's storming in my head |
|
I got cathedrals in my ears and I think my daddy's dead |
|
Lord I see red and I'm prayin' on my bed |
|
I got a drunk for a mother |
|
Got a saint for a brother |
|
Now the sun is shinin' on my hood |
|
The statue on the dashboard |
|
Of Maria looks beautiful, |
|
And I'm headin' down south |
|
I got tequila in my veins |
|
And the devil in my mouth, |
|
Tell my sister I've gone |
|
And to find someone |
|
Cause I won't comeback no more... |
|
No more |
|
Lord I see red and it's storming in my head |
|
I got cathedrals in my ears and I think my daddy's dead |
|
Lord I see red and I'm prayin' on my bed |
|
I got a drunk for a mother |
|
Got a saint for a brother |
|
But hey it's alright |
|
I got jukebox tears and stones for eyes |
|
Hey it's alright |
|
I got jukebox tears |
|
Under turquoise skies... |
|
Hey. |
|
So now I got hell on my trail |
|
It took some demons to get even |
|
No my demons are countin' rosaries |
|
We never blamed it on the soil |
|
Or the sun scorched earth |
|
Where the desert meets the sky |
|
Tell my sister I've gone and to find someone |
|
Cause I won't come back no more... |
|
No more. |
|
Lord I see red and it's storming in my head |
|
I got cathedrals in my ears and I think my daddy's dead |
|
Lord I see red and I'm prayin' on my bed |
|
I got a drunk for a mother |
|
Got a saint for a brother |
|
Lord I see red and it's storming in my head |
|
I got cathedrals in my ears and I think my daddy's dead |
|
Lord I see red and I'm prayin' on my bed |
|
I got a drunk for a mother |
|
Got a saint for a brother |
|
I got a drunk for a mother |
|
Got a saint for a brother |
|
I got a drunk for a mother |
|
Got a saint for a brother. |
|
I got a drunk for a mother |
|
Got a saint for a brother. |
