Red Sea - Wolves at the Door lyrics

I met an old lady Whose past was rather shady Playin' down in New Orleans No one of fame Just some French Quarter dame Her style was just a bit obscene Oh yeah Tellin' me stories Of her fast faded glory She left no stone unturned Except the one About the Father's only Son "And child", she said "That bridge been burned "But I know there's a Heaven "'Cause Lord I live in this Hell" She led me down to the k**ing floor To hear the wolves scratchin' at my door "I know that you're guessin' That somethin's been missin' So preacher come and and save my soul My lust has been fed Sleepin' in the devil's bed And sorrow's made my heart turn cold My momma was a junkie My daddy was a drunkie He left us all when I was five By sweet sixteen My dear sister Jean Was turnin' tricks to stay alive So you can call me a sinner But it runs in the family Lord help me please I know you said that you'd pray for me But do you care for me?" "It's all in your mind" she said "It's just the same old feeling You said that a prayer could raise the dead And Lord I believe it All of the lines I chose before I won't use them any more When will it ever end? The wolf's at the door again" Take it or leave it The truth, the life, the way You'd better believe it The truth, the life, the way Take it or leave it The truth, the life, the way You'd better believe it Lord, Lord save this poor gone soul It's been ten years And ten million tears Tryin' to keep the spirit clean As long as I live I'll never forget The lady down in New Orleans She led me down on the k**ing floor And I swear I couldn't take any more When I heard her say "It's all in your mind my friend Don't put your faith in a feelin' You said that a prayer could raise the dead And Lord I believe it All of the lines I chose before I won't use them any more When will this nightmare ever end? The wolf's at the door again Feel the sunshine Feel the sunshine Feel, feel Feel the sunshine Feel the sunshine Feel Feel the sunshine Feel the sunshine Feel
