Mark Lanegan - Strange Religion lyrics

Can you stay here next to me?

We'll just keep driving

Because of you I see a light

The Buick's a Century, a '73 like you

Some strange religion

I get my hands on some money momma, and it's shot in

the night

I stared down the past and just scarred my eyes

Now I know there's no easy ride

She's been the kind who would take it in stride

Some jack of diamonds kicked her heart around

Did they know they were walking on holy ground?

I almost called it a day so many times

Didn't know what it felt like to be alive

Until you've been a friend to me, like nobody else

could be

Keep my hands on the wheel now momma

I'm gonna honestly try

She looked past the scars and the burned out eyes

You could see I'm no easy ride

She's just the kind who might get you to buy

Some strange religion

These jack of diamonds kicked her heart around

Should've known they were walking on holy ground

And this life might eventually just be the end of me,

will I still be with you

Is that Gideon next to me?, I just keep driving,

because of you I've been alive

And this Buick's a Century, '73 like you

Some strange religion

The Buick's a Century, '73 like you

Some strange religion
