lyrics

SAVIOR BLUES

Streets getting meaner
Property condemned
World dividing up
Us against them.
Try to deny it.
Your home is a cage
Living in the city
Of the minimum wage.

CHORUS
They say "Come to Jesus
And you will see the light."
But if you don't find your savior
My door's still open tonight.

They ask you for an answer
It's this and then it's that
The state of indecision
Is your natural habitat.
You're at a disadvantage
You never learned to cheat
You never hitched your wagon
To some famous athlete.
CHORUS

The dogs of war are restless
Itching to break free.
Straining at their leashes
Baring jagged teeth.
Trouble in the big house
Confusion has its price.
What started out as virtue
Is now a rancid vice.
CHORUS
