Santa Fe
Santa Fe
They
say that no man is an island
And
good things come to those who wait
But
the things I hear are there just to remind me
Every
dog will have his day
The
spirits, they intoxicate me
I
watched them infiltrate my soul
They
try to say it's too late for me
Tell
my guns I'm coming home
I
swear I'm gonna live forever
Tell
my maker he can wait
I'm
riding somewhere south of heaven
Heading
back to Santa Fe
It's
judgment day in Santa Fe
Once
I was promised absolution
There's
only one solution for my sins
You
gotta face your ghosts and know with no illusions
That
only one of you is going home again
And
I blame this world for making a good man evil
It's
this world that can drive a good man mad
And
it's this world that turns a killer into a hero
Well
I blame this world for making a good man bad
Now
I ain't getting into heaven if the devil has his way
I
swear I'm gonna live forever
Heading
back to Santa Fe
Got
debts to pay in Santa Fe
It's
judgment day in Santa Fe
Lord
have mercy
So
I save a prayer when I need it most
To
the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost
And
sign it from a sinner with no name
When
I meet my maker
Will
he close the book on the hearts I broke and the lives I took?
Will
he walk away 'cause my soul's too late to save?
Now
I ain't getting into heaven
If
the devil has his way
I
swear I'm gonna live forever
Heading
back to Santa Fe
Got
debts to pay in Santa Fe
It's
judgment day in Santa Fe
