Lost Reels II

There you stand, arms out and wide Like forbidden fruit to the squinting eyes Gather us together under your almighty wings Bruise the head and see what tomorrow brings Scarecrow All alone Scarecrow Bring your children home Hand to the plow Forgiving multitudes Give them compassion Why are they afraid of you? Proud at the altar Vain before the throne If you are blameless then throw the stone Scarecrow All alone Scarecrow Bring your children home Betrayed by a friend, hung out to dry Alone in the end, stretched across the sky Eclipse the sun, they know not what they do They say if God is love why would He be so cruel Scarecrow All alone Scarecrow Bring your children home Scarecrow All alone Scarecrow Bring your children home Scarecrow All alone

What if I'm right and you are wrong If I have eternity and you don't have long What if there is a heaven And a place called hell What if my foolishness was really wisdom to your ears And all of my preaching would draw the spirit so near What if there is a heaven And a place called hell What if you see water turn to wine Would you say a miracle or call it a crime What if there is a heaven And a place called hell What if you see Jesus on judgement day Do you think you'll get a second chance What do you think the King will say What if There is A place called Heaven And a place called Hell A place called Hell A place called Hell A place called Hell A place called Hell A place called Hell

The devil's head is along the highway He's electric, got nothing to say Not an easy road in the heat of the day I'm sick and tired of the tolls I've got to pay Do you fill my head with lies I'm sleeping uneasy tonight My body is broken and I'm shaking inside You're the little beast You're the little beast Such a little beast You're the little beast Pearls before the swine love is a higher law The purple sky brings out those hungry dogs Sonny boy Williamson can you tell me what went wrong Can I have your shoulder to lean on Do you fill my head with lies I'm sleeping uneasy tonight My body is broken and I'm shaking inside You're the little beast You're a little beast Such a little beast You're the little beast When a child is unwanted they say justice falls And go into the poor neighborhoods And machine gun them all Salvation is a dove and branch A rainbow crucified Chill the Messiah who is your Jesus Christ Do you fill my head with lies I'm sleeping uneasy tonight My body is broken and I'm shaking inside You're the little beast You're the little beast Such a little beast You're the little beast You're the little beast Such a little beast You're the little beast You're the little beast A little beast

We all have a heart to segregate Is that why she jumped from the Golden Gate? Like a stunt gone bad, she did not walk away What's going on here? I think I've got something to say She said she couldn't wait for the light to come She had plenty of time, now look what she has done Some things never change Like the feeling that you know I can't explain Some things never change Like the feeling that you know I can't explain She said she felt sick; Daddy could get her high I believe he gave her just one last ride There is nothing in this world that we can't overcome God have mercy on the things he has done She said she couldn't wait for the light to come She had plenty of time, now look what she has done Some things never change Like the feeling that you know I can't explain Some things never change Like the feeling that you know I can't explain Love is the answer, not the disease I got the cure if you're ready to believe Carol Ann climbed to the top of the bridge, flying high Felt her soul vandalised, so she took her last dive Homicide, suicide, our heroes become so weak Poverty, bended knee - Truth is what you need Drug abuse, no excuse, 'cause we know the facts I know it's hard 'cause they tried to break my back Some things never change Like the feeling that you know I can't explain Some things never change Like the feeling that you know I can't explain I believe in incarnation Virgin birth and jubilation I believe in restoration Eternal life and celebration Spirit filled intoxication It is not imagination Genesis and Revelation Pray for His acceleration Don't believe in suffocation Can't you hear my demonstration? Not brainwashed indoctrination Give us strength in tribulation Knows our thoughts and situations There's one hope and one salvation It is for our generation God is high for exaltation

There's a place I'd like to go back to Time seems to stand still We ran wild, we had no cares Take me back to that place I wish there were a door that I could walk right through To escape this life I want to go back to what we had Times were better then I miss the rain, I miss the rain My heart's been dry like the tear in my eye I've been hurting for you again I miss the rain, I miss the rain My heart's been dry like the tear in my eye And the pain that I feel… Lord, I miss the rain It keeps me young when I remember In my mind the past still lives I've held on to every thought It keeps me so alive The future holds nothing for me If I can't hold you I used to try and change the world Now I change a little for myself I miss the rain, I miss the rain My heart's been dry like the tear in my eye I've been hurting for you again I miss the rain, I miss the rain My heart's been dry like the tear in my eye And the pain that I feel… I miss the rain I miss the rain (how I miss the rain) I miss the rain (falling down) I miss the rain I know there are those who are far sadder than I They lost things they can not replace Like the beauty in their eye But through it all one thing is constant and remains The love of God erases all my pain I miss the rain, I miss the rain My heart's been dry like the tear in my eye

You always told me, you can be beat Thought you had me bound hand and feet I can see your lies, pain and ecstasy It's time I take control, love comes quickly Lay your cards down, you ain't so tough Is that all you got, I will call your bluff Kiss the train, I won't do it Kiss the train, I'd be a fool Kiss the train, I won't do it Kiss the train, love will take me through In my sleep, I could feel the snake Burning body until it ached Signed my name in blood, dream of salvation The morning will come, my love without reservation This isn't the way out, there's always hope and time If you wait on the train, you'll go out of your mind

Everybody knows my name Everybody wants the fame Everybody wants to see Everybody wants a piece of me Everybody wants the fun Everybody needs the gun Everybody be so kind Still got my piece of mind Everybody knows my name Everybody can you feel my pain? I was born a poor boy, left home when I was four Momma never named me so I never was for sure I learned to read enough to know Life was not so kind All I own is my guitar and a little peace of mind Everybody knows my name Everybody play the game Everybody wants the fame Everybody knows my name I went out into the world to find my place in life I'm learning more every day surviving really bites They ask me for a line of coke, needles, knives and guns I said to myself I've found home 'cause this place sounds like fun Everybody knows my name Everybody play the game Everybody wants the fame Everybody knows my name I've seen holy rollers, midnight strollers Cops shake with fear High heels clicking, red lipstick an' Blood, sweat and tears I've read about a man who died on a cross For everybody's sins If you want to make a change You've got to put your faith in him I've seen the limelight in New York City I've seen the rainbow in Hollywood I walked the streets of London England The streets of gold look so good I voted for their politicians I've seen all the dirty religions I wore their three piece suits But I did not wear their army boots I didn't fire the guns of war I never knew what we were fighting for Everybody wants the fame Everybody knows my name Everybody wants the fame Everybody knows my name

They pay me lots of money for what I do I'm a dancer midnight romancer under the moon I'm on the clock, I like to rock I don't work the streets You'll be amazed, your eyes a glazed When I do my high wire feats Exterminator, rawhide gangster, I can equal the odds I pay for your sins with my boyish grin, I create the facade Steady hand, I'm a gentleman, I've got deadly aim Womanizer, lone survivor, I like to play the game Hope you and Jesus have it all worked out I'm a hired gun There is no heaven here on earth, love must rule us all Black days are coming, every prideful man will fall Have no fear or shed a tear, but there will come a day When I'm looked in the eye, asked to die, and I hear somebody say Hope you and Jesus have it all worked out I'm a hired gun

Roxanne doesn't think she's pretty enough She sits staring up at the sky Dreams about a life that could be She throws her diary into the sea It becomes a very long summer The careless nights of fantasy are over When you see her she's white as a ghost She misses the sun on her face the most Young love, kiss him goodbye Young love, don't you cry Young love, it's no lie There is love before the day you die She feels her life has fallen apart I tried to tell her the world has a bulletproof heart Sometimes the past is hard to escape When the future is bent out of shape At the church, she knelt to pray Sweet lord Jesus, give me the strength She cried his name She cried his name Roxanne doesn't think she's pretty enough She sits staring up at the sky She wears a cross around her neck Got the words at her fingertips

I can still sweet Louise standing there Like a child she whispers softly to me She comes to me, I swear, I close my eyes I still see sweet Louise I hear the songs she used to sing Her voice sounds so real to me Tell me it's not a dream, my heart is strange Like it used to feel with sweet Louise Sweet Louise, she's still with me Even though she's gone Sweet Louise, she's part of me She lives in my songs The door opened and closed And no one knows Our secret place Where memories are safe No one can move me like she did No one can touch me like she did On a rainy night how we cried I held her and and I kissed her goodbye I can see you up in heaven looking down at me Make the dark clouds disappear There can never be a love so sweet She left this world without a tear The door opened and closed I know We'll be together again

"Jesus is knocking on the door of your heart, today…" Dropping rattlesnakes in the playground Are we evil, are we good? Dropping rattlesnakes in the playground Would you save them if you could? What are the children to do with it? Kill the mules in South America This is the sewer where the filth unite This is the place where Dark tramples the Light It used to be pretty Now it's such a pity Brings out the animal in all of us No more sad sob stories No more preachin' and cryin' Falling like soldiers of fortune Dropping rattlesnakes in the playground Are we evil, are we good? Dropping rattlesnakes in the playground Would you save them if you could? It won't get any better, it will only get worse Cry to God and plead the Fifth Who's to blame for our demise? Cleanse our hands from all the lies It used to be pretty Now it's such a pity Brings out the animal in all of us No more sad sob stories No more preachin' and cryin' Falling like soldiers of fortune Dropping rattlesnakes in the playground Are we evil, are we good? Dropping rattlesnakes in the playground Would you save them if you could? This spirit is willing but the flesh is weak Cain visits Able, the Earth, the meek Lift up the children when you can Jezzebel's cocaine in the devil's hands It used to be pretty Now it's such a pity Brings out the animal in all of us No more sad sob stories No more preachin' and cryin' Falling like soldiers of fortune Dropping rattlesnakes in the playground Are we evil, are we good?

When you lay it down for the money or life Will you come to me? When you die for the money or life How long will it be? When you're hung on a cross beside the savior of life Don't you comfort me What's more important; your money or life? Would you die for me? Would you die for me honey? Would you? Would you cry for me honey? Would you die for me honey? Would you? Would you cry for me honey? Are you in love with Jesus Christ Would you die for me? If you see me and my bones consumed Will you feed me? If I were to stand on the edge of my mind Would you give your wings to me? Would you still wear the thorns if I denied you thrice? Would you love me? Would you die for me honey? Would you? Would you cry for me honey? Would you die for me honey? Would you? Would you cry for me honey? If you see me wounded lost roadside, boy Would you carry me? If i were a preacher man bound for glory Would you follow me? If I became captain hi-top ego star Would you worship me? If I fall like the apple from a tree Would you shine on me? Would you die for me honey? Would you? Would you cry for me honey?
