Willie Nelson - Born And Raised In Black And White lyrics

Your rating:

Makes some people go insane
 While others quietly pray for rain
 That's where we came from

 Two boys playing in the burning sun
 One with books,one with guns
 Mama calls but just one comes
 The other one runs

 1stChorus:
 In a crystal sense of wrong and right
 We were born and raised in black and white
 One learned to pray,one loved to fight
 We were born and raised in black and white
 We were born and raised in black and white

 Brother took to the gospel road
 Spent his whole live saving souls
 When he looked at me his blood ran cold
 He didn't even try

 I had no dreams,I had no plans
 But a gun felt good in my right hand
 The warden asked how come you killed that man
 I said I don't know why

 2nd Chorus:
 Welcome home said the hot moonlight
 We were born and raised in black and white
 One lives to pray,one prays for life
 We were born and raised in black and white
 We were born and raised in black and white

 Someone handed me a cigarette
 They offered me my last request
 I asked my mortal soul be blessed
 By someone close to me

 He came to me with trembling hands
 He swore he'd never understand
 I said it's just what life had planned
 It's destiny

 4th Chorus:
 Don't waste your tears on me tonight
 We were born and raised in black and white
 I chose the dark,you chased the light
 We were born and raised in black and white
 We were born and raised in black and white
