lyrics

I hear the bells at the mission ringing in the lost
Ice is gone from the riverbank but it’s still too deep to cross
She wears a long white dress, walks through the reeds
Easter came early this year but it’s time for me to leave
They all say she’s a faith healer but I know the truth she’s a soul-stealer
And nothing’s gonna save me now
Gotta find a way back home
Gotta cut myself free
Gotta find a way back home
Six bits for the wooden man and I could get myself some sleep

I stumbled into Stella’s with a thirst I could not quench
Three odd hours on a barstool honey with some bourbon and some branch
Local law was dispatched; they cuffed me on the spot
Threw up on the county judge and then he locked me up
Fifteen days in a 6 x 10, if they let me out I’ll just do it again
Nothing’s gonna save me now
Gotta find a way back home
Gotta cut myself free
Gotta find a way back home
Because that kid don’t look like me
So you can grin like a jester and mumble with your steel wool teeth

Hey, Chester how you been how’s Jack your dog?
I heard him howling down by the slough last night in the fog
I’ve been living up at the mission, washing down the floors
I ain’t seen that dog of mine in thirty years or more
Hound dog howling blue and red she’s a plastic bag around my head
And nothing’s gonna save me now
Gotta find a way back home
Gotta cut myself free
Gotta find a way back home
Six bits for the wooden man and I could get myself some sleep
