Thom - New Desert Blues

Oh Father please wait by the phone

I’m stuck on the bridge

And I’m still question the sound

The sky won’t forgive me what I have done

And I leave my love to the right by the sun

Cold-blooded killers and honest men

You’ve forgotten my face

But remembered my name

Cold-blooded killers and honest men

You’ve forgotten my face

But remembered my name

Oh Father won’t you give me a sign

Anything to keep me in line

Oh Father won’t you give me a sign

Anything to keep me in line

I deserve when I get but don’t leave me

Alone in the sand, the cold gripping my feet

I’m a hunter I hide and caught me my break

Just don’t leave me here

And I’ll do what you say

Cold-blooded killers and honest men

You’ve forgotten my face

But remembered my name

Cold-blooded killers and honest men

You’ve forgotten my face

But remembered my name

I looked into your eyes

And you sold my soul

The causes of death alone only once

I’ll leave my body here

To the wind and the rain

Maybe next time

You’ll tell me your name

Oh Father won’t you give me a sign

Anything to keep me in line

Oh Father won’t you give me a sign

Anything to keep me in line

Oh Father won’t you give me a sign

Anything to keep me in line

Oh Father won’t you give me a sign

Anything to keep me in line

Oh Father won’t you give me a sign

Anything to keep me in line

Oh Father won’t you give me a sign

Anything to keep me in line

I’m turning my nails, my teeth and blood

If you call me tonight then

It stays in the scene

I’ll feel my blood my freeze

But it ant my time

I’d reach for a gun

But it ain’t even mine
