Gunmetal Blues

Well I put him down at the break of day
And in the dirty ground I thought I heard him pray
And the Winter sun rose cold and new
On a sky gunmetal blue

Now she wakes up from a violent dream
In the early dawn she knows what it means
And the same sunrise lights up her room
And those hard hard eyes gunmetal blue

Now I'm flying on a desert track
Across the Texas line I thought of turning back
'Til the ABP came across the news
About an '84 Dodge gunmetal blue

Down through the valley where the cold wind blows
Run from the Devil in a dream of snow
Sleeping when the sun goes down in the West
A wicked man can't have not rest
High up in the hills in a cold dark mist
Hanging by a thread from her last kiss
Moving when the sun sets black as coal
A wicked man with the Devil in tow

In a border town North of Mexico
I watch the sun go down over my new home
And the Rio Grande flows black and true
To wash away these gunmetal blues

Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me so
Little ones to him belong
They are week and he is strong
Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me so
Little ones to him belong
They are week and he is strong
