• Cloth

I am a man of cloth
But not without my sin
I've heard the devil's knock
I always let him in

Temptation is my left hand
Salvation is my right
I wander in the darkness
But I always bring the light

Though I preach the word
I was baptized in the well
I could save yer wretched souls
Or send them straight to hell

A dirt road is my path
My collars stained with blood
I'm chasing after locusts
And I'm waiting for the flood

(chorus)I wear the cloth, but my heart's as black as coal
A scarecrow on the cross, preachin' to the crows
Humbled by the lord, I'm a man without a soul
Redemption has a price, and my cloth is full of holes

I've come to testify
A war's been waged within
And if I were a betting man
I'd bet that devil wins

I've wrestled with my conscience
I wrestled with my soul
And now I fight the devil
And the devil's got control

(chorus)

my soul, it's burnin'
though I'm cold and in the grave
I guess the lord decided that
I wasn't worth the save

I travel in the shadows
I walk amongst the dead
The outlaw is upon me
But my sermon has been read

(chorus)
