Warren Zevon
Jesus Was A Cross Maker
written by Judee Sill
Sweet silver angels over the sea Please come down flying low for me
One time I trusted a stranger
'Cause I heard his sweet song It was gently enticing me But there was something wrong And when I turned He was gone Blinding me His song remains reminding me He's a bandit and a heartbreaker My Jesus was a cross maker
Sweet silver angels over the sea Please come down flying low for me
He wages war with the devil With a pistol by His side He's always chasing him out of windows And He won't give him a place to hide But he keeps His door Open wide
Fighting him
Letras de cancionesHe lights a lamp inviting him He's a bandit and a heartbreaker My Jesus was a cross maker Yeah, Jesus was a cross maker (here's a verse Ms. Sill wrote, which Warren leaves out: maybe he thought he had enough thunder on this record, already:
I heard the thunder come rumblin'
The light never looked so dim
I see the junction git nearer
and danger is in the wind
And either road's lookin' grim
Hidin' me, I flee, desire dividin' me
He's a bandit and a heartbreaker.
Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker
Yes, Jesus was a cross maker)
