I've seen them light the candles and I've heard them bang the drum And I've cried, Mama Mama I'm cold as ice and I got no place to run Let the night begin, there's a pop of skin and the sudden rush of scarlet There's a little boy riding on a goat's head and a little girl playing the harlot There's a sacrifice in an empty church of sweet li'l baby Rose And a man in a mask from Mexico is peeling off my clothes I've seen them light the candles and I've heard them bang the drum And I've cried, Mama Mama I'm cold as ice and I got no place to run So I'm paying for protection, smoking out the truth Chasing recollections, nailing down the proof You don't have to play me backwards to get the meaning of my verse You don't have to die and go to hell to feel the devil's curse I'll stand before your altar and tell everything I know I've come to claim my childhood at the chapel of baby Rose. I've seen them light the candles and I've heard them bang the drum And I've cried, Mama Mama I'm cold as ice and I got no place to run Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Stones In The Road, Strange Rivers, The 33rd Of August, The Brand New Tennessee Waltz, THE DREAM SONG, The Night They Drove Old Dixi Down, The Partisan La Complainte Du Partisan 317 H, The Partisan (La Complainte Du Partisan) (3:17) (H, The Salt Of The Earth, THREE HORSES, Through Your Hands, To Bobby 353 Joan Baez, To Bobby (3:53) (Joan Baez), Tumbleweed 332 Douglas Van Arsdale, Tumbleweed (3:32) (Douglas Van Arsdale), When Time Is Stolen, Amsterdam, Edge of Glory, Im With You, Isaac & Abraham, Play Me Backwards, Steal Across the Border, Stones in the Road, Strange Rivers, The Dream Song, Diamonds and Rust, El Preso Numero Nueve, Famous Blue Raincoat, Gracias a la Vida, Let It Be, Llego Con Tres Heridas, No Nos Moveran, No Woman, No Cry, Crack In The Mirror, February, Lily, Mercy Bound, And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda, Jesse, Suzanne, Sweet Sir Galahad, The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, Asimbonanga, James & The Gang, Recently, China, Speaking Of Dreams, A Heartfelt Line Or Two, Luba The Baroness, Miracles, Other Baez Joan song Lyrics A Stranger In My Place (307) (Kenny Rogers-Kin Lyrics A Stranger In My Place (3:07) (Kenny Rogers - Kin Lyrics All My Trials Lord Lyrics Amsterdam Lyrics Angeline Lyrics Asimbonanga Lyrics Blessed Are...
