St. Joe's Band (LP版) - The Ike Reilly Assassination[00:00:00]
I used to play the harp in the St Joe's band[00:00:04]
Blow my lungs out for salvation[00:00:08]
Suck those reeds boy and be a man[00:00:12]
And wait in hell for an ovation[00:00:16]
God left me peace left me free left me be[00:00:21]
Left me swinging in the breeze[00:00:24]
Like a coward on my knees[00:00:26]
Unpeacefully[00:00:28]
Retreating[00:00:32]
I used to play the harp in a garage band[00:00:36]
For the bullies and all their marijuana[00:00:40]
White boys' blues are all secondhand[00:00:45]
But blow it hard when you got 'em[00:00:49]
Blow it in the coves[00:00:53]
In the ditches in the streams[00:00:54]
In the cemeteries[00:00:56]
Where the statues never bleed[00:00:58]
And the gravel pit that fluttered[00:01:01]
With the steam shovels covered[00:01:02]
By the water and the danger and the weeds[00:01:05]
And the parties in the basements[00:01:09]
Of all the broken homes[00:01:11]
Of the girls whose fathers[00:01:13]
Are gone and had to roam[00:01:15]
Gotta roam gotta roam[00:01:17]
Gotta roam gotta roam[00:01:19]
God left me peace left me free left me be[00:01:24]
Left me swinging in the breeze[00:01:28]
Like a coward on my knees[00:01:30]
Unpeacefully[00:01:32]
Retreating[00:01:36]
God left me peace left me free left me be[00:01:41]
Left me swinging in the breeze[00:01:44]
Like a flicker through the trees[00:01:46]
Unpeacefully[00:01:48]
Retreating[00:01:52]
I used to play the harp in the St Joe's band[00:01:57]
Blow my lungs out for salvation[00:02:01]
I wanna get paid like any man[00:02:05]
And find my heaven waiting[00:02:09]
Take all your bullsh*t when you make a stand[00:02:13]
And your big house burns down slowly[00:02:17]
A thousand souls of the faithful wake[00:02:21]
To haunt your house unholy[00:02:25]
Go away go away you holy ghost[00:02:29]
Take your party out to the coast[00:02:33]
I can't be your gracious host[00:02:37]
I don't play the harmonica[00:02:42]
God left me peace left me free left me be[00:02:50]
Left me swinging in the breeze[00:02:53]
Like a flicker through the trees[00:02:55]
Unpeacefully[00:02:57]
Retreating[00:03:02]
God left me peace left me free left me be[00:03:06]
Left me swinging in the breeze[00:03:10]
Like a coward on my knees[00:03:12]
Unpeacefully[00:03:14]
Retreating[00:03:18]
Retreating[00:03:22]
