| You heard the news, sweet child
|
| I’ve slaughtered all them swines
|
| I left it burnin'
|
| Gone to New York
|
| There will be no more violence in the house of your heart
|
| In the house of your heart
|
| There was a rabble
|
| And I was weak for a while
|
| I’ll never be as good as you so
|
| I got a ride and
|
| I hitched out for new yards
|
| There will be no more violence in the house of your heart
|
| In the name of the Lord
|
| Oh, oh, baby
|
| Where will I dig my roots?
|
| It’s aching each time that I think of you
|
| I wish for a better day to come around
|
| Wanna shake my hands down
|
| Show you what you found (oh)
|
| I wish for a better day to come around
|
| So put a gun to the thunder inside of my head (oh)
|
| You heard the news, sweet child
|
| The world is mad, we’re runnin' wild
|
| Hop on ride and
|
| Get off at New York
|
| There will be no more violence in the house of your heart
|
| In the house of your heart
|
| In the name of the Lord
|
| I wish there’d been another way
|
| Wish there’d been another way
|
| Wish I’d stayed, but
|
| Oh, oh, baby
|
| Where will I dig my roots?
|
| It’s aching each time that I think of you
|
| I wish for a better day to come around
|
| Wanna shake my hands down
|
| Show you what you found (oh)
|
| I wish for a better day to come around
|
| So put a gun to the thunder inside of my head (oh)
|
| Where will I dig my roots? |
| (Oh)
|
| Where will I dig my roots? |
