| [00:11.32] |
No stranger in this town |
| [00:13.96] |
Nobody moves without making a sound |
| [00:17.64] |
You live and die within the borders and lines |
| [00:21.39] |
No one dies without paying their fines |
| [00:27.95] |
No lovers in this town |
| [00:31.01] |
The moon's full but it sure ain't round |
| [00:34.21] |
And just because you lie in his bed |
| [00:37.02] |
Don't mean he meant the things he said |
| [00:44.58] |
They marry young in these parts |
| [00:47.75] |
They work the factories |
| [00:57.75] |
So I ran as fast as I could |
| [01:00.38] |
Through the tall grass and the midnight woods |
| [01:04.82] |
So no one would sing some bible song over me |
| [01:15.58] |
|
| [01:17.95] |
My cousin died in his sleep |
| [01:21.01] |
Forty pilss, two kids to keep |
| [01:24.39] |
And how will she explain to those kids |
| [01:29.19] |
About the sorry thing daddy did |
| [01:34.75] |
They marry young in these parts |
| [01:37.70] |
They raise their kids and set them free |
| [01:47.82] |
So I ran as fast as I could |
| [01:50.45] |
Through the tall grass and the midnight woods |
| [01:54.19] |
So no one would sing some bible song over me |
| [02:08.07] |
They buried him out in the cold |
| [02:11.07] |
He was only twenty-four years old |
| [02:15.58] |
|
| [02:21.26] |
How his mother came undone |
| [02:24.45] |
When the choir sang hallelujah |
| [02:33.20] |
|
| [02:38.72] |
I ran as fast as I could |
| [02:40.54] |
Through the tall grass and the midnight woods |
| [02:51.16] |
I ran as fast as I could |
| [02:53.85] |
Through the tall grass and the midnight woods |
| [03:00.59] |
|
| [03:03.91] |
Hallelujah Hallelujah - ahh |
| [03:09.97] |
Hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah |
| [03:17.53] |
Hallelujah hallelujah |
| [03:23.52] |
Hallelujah |
