Driving on the bypass to Damascus
|
|
I saw a preacher trying to hitch a ride
|
|
With a pair of broken wings
|
|
And a suitcase full of sins
|
|
He gathered up his dreams and jumped inside
|
|
Pulling Malatesta from his suitcase
|
|
He lifted up his voice and began to sing
|
|
'My songs of desperation lead to action...
|
|
And this is where the serious fun begins.'
|
|
We don't go to God's house anymore
|
|
Saw the light and walked right out the door
|
|
We don't go to God's house
|
|
It's more fun in the dog house
|
|
We don't go to God's house anymore
|
|
Well driving on, I tasted sweet salvation
|
|
As we sung away the pulpit and the past
|
|
The preacherman and me
|
|
We sang such harmonies
|
|
The highway of my life went by so fast
|
|
The preacher, he got off at the crossroads
|
|
He said, 'This is where I end, and you begin'
|
|
He left behind the wings and the Malatesta
|
|
And the memory of the songs we both did sing
|
|
We don't go to God's house anymore
|
|
Saw the light and walked right out the door
|
|
We don't go to God's house
|
|
It's more fun in the doghouse
|
|
We don't go to God's house anymore
|
