The children are crying, they never got their supper Where would you run to, in the darkness of the night? Even shadows fear to wander They gather round me in the candlelight Your crucifix lies broken, bloody, sharp and shattered I smashed it to pieces on the bedroom floor Pain and prayers and promises scattered Then I pulled the pistol from the dresser drawer Oh Lord, Oh Lord, Oh Lord, What Have I Done? Everything worth holding slips through my fingers Now my hands wrapped around the handle of a gun The further I fall, the less I falter Forsaken, forgotten without love A slow motion whisper turns into a holler 40 years of push, turns into shove Oh Lord, Oh Lord, Oh Lord, What Have I Done? Everything worth holding slips through my fingers Now my hands wrapped around the handle of a gun The chair that I sit in I got from my daddy Letras de cancionesCarved from the hard wood of a bitter tree When he was alive he used tell me, kid I knew when you were born you'd end up snake bit like me Oh Lord, Oh Lord, Oh Lord, What Have I Done? Everything worth holding slips through my fingers Now my hands wrapped around the handle of a gun I'm holding on to the handle of a gun From Letras Mania
