Thieves And Villains - South St. Hymnal lyrics
Your rating:
I see his father now from time to time He wears a smile but you can't undress the sadness from those eyes, He haunts a drink and wants something to believe. He says, "God took everything, everything from me." And all the good is gone Been lonesome for so long And I can't hear the choir singing now Just those chains I drag along. And I breathed my life into this child, He was young, he was brilliant, bright, and wild I was a fool to think I'd ever see the day he'd become a better man than me, And carry on my name. And all the good is gone Been lonesome for so long I can't hear that choir singing now Just those chains I drag along. Hallelujah, Hallelujah, I've been down this road before And my heart, it took a toll. When all the good is gone, Been lonesome for so long And I can't hear that choir singing now Just those chains I drag along. Hallelujah, Hallelujah, I walked down, this road alone When this town, it felt like home.
