Herndon - Holy Fool's Lullaby lyrics

Holy Fool's Lullaby Well I could drink myself to sleep but what's the use in countin' sheep if the wool that keeps you warm cannot be found? Well the Lamb of God they say way back in them Bible days was quickly curtly run right out of town. I know it's a dead man's walk I pace and if the whole damn human race decided they would crawl, I might catch up. But there's nothing that I find with my simple country mind in the march towards the New that measures up. They've put monkeys into space and projected man's disgrace onto every television on the earth. But there's nothing there, I guess in this whole postmodern mess that seems to me to have a lot of worth. We've got cellphone towers for trees and we connect at such high speeds but still I feel alone and without shade. You could promise me the moon but I guess I'd just as soon that the moon just stay where it was made. Words & Music (C) 2011 Allen Herndon (BMI).
