She was a girl living in the city, clinging to old religion Praying for electricity to keep it warm for the little ones Nobody made her wise to, the things a girl might find In the belly of a hungry man who don't care nothing about his bloodline She got lost in the bloodline Heavy cost of the bloodline She goes on, she cries at night and keeps alive his bloodline So much riding on a bloodline Why is he hiding from the bloodline? It aint right she cries at night and keeps alive his bloodline
She heard heaven is invite only, reserved for Christian soldiers Not unwed girls living in the city asking for change from strangers But father said Jesus loves her even though she never married God loves her more than the Christians do, she's part of his holy bloodline She got saved in the bloodline The price he paid for the bloodline Changed her life, she cries at night and keeps alive his bloodline She believes in the bloodline Lives and breathes by the bloodline With all her might she cries at night and keeps alive his bloodline
I know I should have never left her to shoulder all the burden She probably won't forgive me, god might not either I made a cross and laid it on her back But I never broke her spirit, and she owes that to her bloodline She stayed strong for the bloodline, I did wrong by the bloodline But she went on she cried at night and kept alive the bloodline Sacrifice for the bloodline, paid the price for the bloodline For all her life she cried at night and kept alive her bloodline
