[Verse 1]
Out where the creek turn shallow and sandy
And the moon comes skimming away the stars
When the mesquite comes rushing over the hilltops
Straight into my arms
Straight into my arms
I'm ridin' hard carrying a cache of roses
And a fresh map that I made
Now I'm going to get birth naked and bury my old soul
And dance on its grave
I'm gonna dance on its grave
[Chorus]
It's been a long time comin', my dear
It's been a long time comin', but now it's here
Now it's here
[Verse 2]
Well, my daddy he was just a stranger
Lived in a hotel downtown
When I was a kid, he was just somebody
Somebody I'd see around
Somebody I'd see around
Now down below and pulling on my shirt
I got some kids of my own
If I had one wish in this god-forsaken world, kids
It'd be, your mistakes'll be your own
Yeah, your sins will be your own
Out where the creek turn shallow and sandy
And the moon comes skimming away the stars
When the mesquite comes rushing over the hilltops
Straight into my arms
Straight into my arms
I'm ridin' hard carrying a cache of roses
And a fresh map that I made
Now I'm going to get birth naked and bury my old soul
And dance on its grave
I'm gonna dance on its grave
[Chorus]
It's been a long time comin', my dear
It's been a long time comin', but now it's here
Now it's here
[Verse 2]
Well, my daddy he was just a stranger
Lived in a hotel downtown
When I was a kid, he was just somebody
Somebody I'd see around
Somebody I'd see around
Now down below and pulling on my shirt
I got some kids of my own
If I had one wish in this god-forsaken world, kids
It'd be, your mistakes'll be your own
Yeah, your sins will be your own
