Down so long now Jesus You know I been down so long Far turned out and freezing Won't you carry my body home This is why I came To live a life in a day With a fire in my head ♪ Who's got the keys to the workhouse? Satan has locked the door Got no wings to take us Up off of that killing floor Is this why you came? To handle a snake Wear a new starry crown ♪ There's no phoenix rising To a mansion up the hill This albatross I'm riding Is a train just standing still This is how I came With a stench and a stain To be washed in the blood
