Shelby lynne - Revelation Road
.
Thought they had it on me
But the truth it lay upon me
Like the Mississippi River runs deeper on the coast
I dont know what happened
I was acting on my passion
Wearing latest fashions I wandered in the cold
.
Then it came upon me in a midnight dream
As honey offers gold
As a gambler I cant hide my debts, as a sinner, as a soul
Pardon me if I forget what Ive already been told
You cant hold that against me man

Im on revelation road
.
Fire and brimstone pave the way
Hold hands together everyday
Nothing left to do but pray and put your head in the sand
Sinners and the preachers at each others throats
Which one is the bad news man
Which one clatters most
.
Screaming turns to salt and dust
Volume is not heard
Bible beaters rest your fists
Haters rest your ire
Youre both too young to know youre mute
Unconscious to the choir
But I cant hold that against you man
Were on revelation road
.
Grab your little passbooks
A ticket gets you in
One Hail Mary does the trick forgived of all your sins
And when the show is over
Youre where you started from
Collecting all the barbs you threw piled up to be disposed
.
Judgement comes and never tires
Forgotten is the code
Doing unto others is a farce, a laugh, a joke
Remember when the black veil falls
We all stand alone
Barefeet on the gravel man

Were on revelation road
Revelation, revelation...
