I look at the sky
I see an airplane as it flies
Is this the way they said Jesus came?
Gone through St. Louis
Gone straightaway
And I hear the winter
Will cut you quick
ย
If tears were liquor
I'd have drunk myself sick
ย
Woman are you home?
A house of cards, a frame of bones
Here I am earthly bound
Said hallelujah I'm going down
And the River Jordan is deep and wide
I think I see forever across on the other side
ย
I look at the sky
I see a nightbird as it flies
Over the old bent cherry trees
Shivering in a row
Down here the winter
Will cut you quick
ย
These tears are liquor, oh yeah
ย
And I've drunk myself sick
ย
And the dead of winter
Will cut you quick
ย
These tears are liquor, hmmm
ย
And I've drunk myself sick
