Out where the creek turns shallow and sandy
And the moon comes skimmin' away the stars
Wind in the mesquite comes rushin' over the hilltops
Straight into my arms
Straight into my arms
I'm ridin' hard, carryin' a cache of roses
A fresh map that I made
Tonight I'm gonna get birth naked and bury my old soul
And dance on its grave
Yeah, dance on its grave
Yeah, well, it's been a long time comin', my dear
It's been a long time comin', but now it's here
And now it's here
Well, my daddy he was just a stranger
Lived in a hotel downtown
Well, when I was a kid he was just somebody
Somebody I'd see around
Somebody I'd see around
Well, now down below and pullin' on my shirt
Yeah, I got some kids of my own
If I had one wish in this god forsaken world, kids
It'd be that your mistakes'll be your own
Yeah, your sins'll be your own
And the moon comes skimmin' away the stars
Wind in the mesquite comes rushin' over the hilltops
Straight into my arms
Straight into my arms
I'm ridin' hard, carryin' a cache of roses
A fresh map that I made
Tonight I'm gonna get birth naked and bury my old soul
And dance on its grave
Yeah, dance on its grave
Yeah, well, it's been a long time comin', my dear
It's been a long time comin', but now it's here
And now it's here
Well, my daddy he was just a stranger
Lived in a hotel downtown
Well, when I was a kid he was just somebody
Somebody I'd see around
Somebody I'd see around
Well, now down below and pullin' on my shirt

Yeah, your sins'll be your own
