The Hellacopters - No Angel to Lay Me Away lyrics

Sun didn't rise this morning Not a sign come noon Heard the noise of a thousand voices But no one else was in my room Reached for my holy bible But it seems as though I've lost my ways Don't want no superstition to carry me down Got the devil grinning in my face Make me a pallet on your floor Mama tell me what to do Won't serve it to me right C'mon and bring me good news Help me get rid of these blues Got me stuck by the wayside In the wee, wee hours Won't you spare this denier From the brimstone and the fire Lord won't you give me power Don't want no angel to lay me away No saint to worry my ol' mind Write me no d**h letter Bound for worse and not better Jesus, don't leave me behind No I don't need no headstone Or writings on my grave Break 'em on down - shake 'em on down Lord knows I can't be saved I'll never pray for no mercy no more Or make amendments for my ways I got time to reconsider While I stay there and wither With the devil grinning in my face
