C’mon and sit with us
And tell me where it hurts
We can talk things out
In our tobacco church
You give me a light
We stay up all night
Us against the dust
In our tobacco church
Come for the smoke
Stay for the fire
There’s not much else that we require
Come for the smoke
Stay for the fire
You be the priest and I’ll be the choir
I don’t wanna leave
Rust can drag you down
But we’re tuxes and gowns
We can talk it out
In our tobacco church
Don’t drown in your bother
Let’s learn to breathe underwater
Us against the dust
In our tobacco church
Come for the smoke
Stay for the fire
There’s not much else that we require
Come for the smoke
Stay for the fire
You be the priest and I’ll be the choir
I don’t wanna leave
Ok everyone be seated
Let’s get this thing started
Quiet down back there
You 2 are always causing trouble
No laughing in the pews
This is serious stuff we are about to undertake
Shhhh shhhhh
I’ve stained more than glass
Still running from my past
We can hunker down
In our tobacco church
Take a vow of truth
While holding on to you
Us against the dusk
In our tobacco church

Good Soldier

Come back we’ll start up it up clean
I filled the engine block with Listerine
In the streets we’re making the horns blow
Me & Jesus out here riding low
3 ghosts, they follow us around
The past, the present and our future clowns
Told him all about you, he said you’d come back
And then he left in a cream Cadillac
You are the bottom and the top
The fast and the slow
Madonna in the morning
And the devil down below
The grass and the sky
The red and the green
But you are never are the yellow
I’m so tired of being a good, good soldier
Will it get better
When we get a little older
I’m so tired of being a good, good soldier
I just need these loving hands to hold her
I missed your call, I must’ve been driving
Back from this dive bar out there on the island
I went to church, I tried to stay clean
But then I lost my last shoulder to lean
I’m on the outside again, a stranger looking in
Tomorrow I will call you back I really need a friend
I can’t stand straight on praying on wishes
Draggin’ ‘round this bag of superstitions
You are the bottom and the top
The fast and the slow
Madonna in the morning
And the devil down below
The grass and the sky
The red and the green
But you are never are the yellow
I’m so tired of being a good, good soldier
Will it get better
When we get a little older
I’m so tired of being a good, good soldier
I just need these loving hands to hold her
Oh man, there’s trouble downtown
Two boys in blue in blue found me wandering around
I was under your window last night
You were shining like the Christmas lights
But my presents got returned and bridges got burns
How are we gonna unsend all those invitations
When I’m sleeping it off, I’ll survey the cost
Right now it’s hard to make these calculations
You are the bottom and the top
The fast and the slow
Madonna in the morning
And the devil down below
The grass and the sky
The red and the green
But you’re never in between
I’m so tired of being a good, good soldier
Will it get better
When we get a little older
I’m so tired of being a good, good soldier
I just need these loving hands to hold her
