Ricky Ross - Calvary lyrics

Artist: Ricky Ross

album: Pale Rider


It's late in the year
And the leaves are fallen down and swept clear
And tonight I'm going to have start thinking hard
About Christmas
How I don't care
Whether what we have happened here or there
Or something wild and wonderful came out into
The sky just to please us
Night fall's still a broken step
This old mule's legs
Will take you many days from here
Tired limbs and ruddy cheeks
Will bandage up your aching hands and feet
I don't need to know what everyone sees
Different roads can take you where other paths lead
I'm not even trying to get as far as Calvary
As the sun goes down
And the lights go up in hilltop towns
And the boys and girls are gathered in and asked
To make a wish come true
And I'm driving round
Some bleak mid-winter tinseltown
I see you sleeping at the bus stop with nothing
But a blanket between the moon and you
The baby comes, folks don't sleep
Those shepherds keep
You up later than you meant to be
One child grows and people notice
He's breaking chains
And making poor folks' lives so heavenly
(The way it's meant to be)
I don't need to know what everyone sees
Different roads can take you where other paths lead
I'm not even trying to get as far as Calvary
