lyrics
Have you ever looked up to sky
all them angels shinin' through the light?
Have you ever sat and wondered why
all them people working they're gonna die
and then you wander down to the street
heard people talking like they're free
follow the line to your next check
down to wire theyll get you next
and you move mountains in your own head
jumped in the river and then it said
wash away your sins and turn around again
close your eyes and lay your head to rest
Have you ever looked down from the sky
all them people livin their lies
you sit in the clouds up above
silently wonder if they'sve had enough
i got a pocket full of shame and cheap high
as i walk down to the county line
then i wandered on down to the street
a wise man said to me
i sat and listened to the wise man speak
of love and death and a world thats free
you lay in a meadow in your head
along came a voice and then it said
wash away your sins and turn around again
close your eyes and lay your head to rest
