Bible Song

No stranger in this town
 Nobody moves without making a sound
 You live and die within the borders and lines
 No one dies without paying their fines
 No lovers in this town
 The moon's full but it sure ain't round
 And just because you lie in his bed
 Don't mean he meant the things he said
 They marry young in these parts
 They work the factories
 So I ran as fast as I could
 Through the tall grass and the midnight woods
 So no one would sing some bible song over me
 My cousin died in his sleep
 Forty pilss, two kids to keep
 And how will she explain to those kids
 About the sorry thing daddy did
 They marry young in these parts
 They raise their kids and set them free
 So I ran as fast as I could
 Through the tall grass and the midnight woods
 So no one would sing some bible song over me
 They buried him out in the cold
 He was only twenty-four years old
 How his mother came undone
 When the choir sang hallelujah
 I ran as fast as I could
 Through the tall grass and the midnight woods
 I ran as fast as I could
 Through the tall grass and the midnight woods
 Hallelujah Hallelujah - ahh
 Hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah
 Hallelujah hallelujah
 Hallelujah
