Grace of God Songtext
von Michael McDermott

The sun came up this morning
While I was laying myself down
The dawn broke like a warning
Telling me I ought to leave this town
Cause dying ain′t no way to make a living
And I ain't quite ready to die
Yeah there but for the grace of God go I
From the foothills of my memories
To the fl atlands of my youth
Are you sure you′re ready for the truth?
Cause you know you're entitled to the answers
But the river of truth is running dry
Yeah there but for the grace of God go I Baptized in blood, fi re and water
You're wonderin′ why you′re never feeling clean
Your boat's pulled out from the harbor
And you′re on the dock abandoned in between
So dance the dance of witches neath the moonlight
While the rattlesnake's rhythm keeps the beat
Sullen stand the wounded neath the searchlight
Remembering our heroes in defeat
Wondering on roads still leading further
Forever neath the Colorado sky
Yeah there but for the grace of God go I
Yeah there but for the grace of God go I
