Salinas

Lyrics

I am from Salinas where the women go forever
 And they never ever stop to ask why
 My mother was a savior of six foot of bad behavior
 With long blonde curly hair down to her thigh
 Oh, my mother
 Oh, my friends
 Ask the angels, "Will I ever see heaven again?"
 ♪
 Late into the evening, they would take each other screaming
 Looking darkly to the back of her eye
 A careless beast was bleating that the air behind was breathing
 That they mustn't ever look up to the sky
 There, no answers
 There, are found
 Ask the angels, "Am I heaven bound?
 ♪
 Mm, put it down to me
 I, who speak awkwardly
 Any word if it is heard is not intended to be
 Not for him, not for her
 Not for them and not for me
 Oh, and that gun will turn before the sun starts to burn
 Understand?
 ♪
 Mm, when the clouds roll in
 We start payin' for our sins
 With a gun in my hand and my son at my shoulder
 Believe, I will run before that boy gets older
 Oh, and that gun will turn before the sun starts to burn
 Understand?
 ♪
 Oh, and that gun will turn before the sun starts to burn
 Understand?
 ♪
 I am from Salinas where the women go forever
 And they never ever stop to ask why
 My mother, she's a savior of six foot of bad behavior
 With long blonde curly hair down to her thighs
 Oh, my mother
 Oh, my friends
 Ask the angels, "Will I ever see heaven again?"
 Will I ever see heaven again?
 Will I ever see heaven again?
 ♪
 Punish them all, for they speak too much
 Hate the world for what it did to us
 Will I ever see heaven again?
