16 HORSEPOWER - Burning Bush lyrics

rate me

All the widows watch<br>Through all window sills<br>Hair raisin' in every room<br>Up the street come a walkin' chill<br>An' you ask for nothin'<br>'cept to be by my side<br><br>See my tears good father<br>Will they wash it away<br>All my dirt from your holy feet<br>No I don't believe it works that way<br>'cause you ask for nothin'<br>'cept to be by my side<br><br>I seen you in the river<br>Before God an' man<br>Held by the holy hand of winter<br>Brought low by winter's holy hand<br><br>Yes my sister girl<br>I know that it is true<br>You see me with the lord's eye girl<br>An' you see right through<br>An' you ask for nothin'<br>Is there somethin' behind my eyes<br><br>I can look good I swear<br>When the spirit blows<br>All ore an' all through yeah<br>My wretched bones<br>An' you ask for nothin'<br>'cept to be by my side love<br><br>I seen you in the river<br>Before God an' man<br>Held by the holy hand of winter<br>Brought low by winter's holy hand
