Jason & The Scorchers Pray For Me Mama (I'm A Gypsy Now) Lyrics

"Jesus gives to those who gives themselves"
That's what you said, do you say that now?
'Cause in my arms you took until I bled
But still I went down every road you led

So the gun was all I had to set me free
I couldn't fight, the devil's seed
So trigger pulled and the red lights flashed their sign
The battle was yours the victory is mine

Refrain: It's been ten years since that lonely day I left you
In the morning rain, smoking gun in hand
Ten lonely years but how my heart It still remembers
Pray for me, Momma, I'm a gypsy now

So I journey back now to your lonesome grave
Searchin' for one thing in my soul to save
'Cause when the gun went off I closed an open door
Now it's locked and chained forevermore.
