Pray For Me, Mama (I'm A Gypsy Now) - Jason & The Scorchers

«Jesus gives to those who gives themselves»

That’s what you said, do you say that now?

'Cause in my arms you took until I bled

But still I went down every road you led

So the gun was all I had to set me free

I couldn’t fight, the devil’s seed

So trigger pulled and the red lights flashed their sign

The battle was yours, the victory is mine

It’s been ten years since that lonely day I left you

In the morning rain, smoking gun in hand

Ten lonely years but how my heart, it still remembers

Pray for me, momma, I’m a gypsy now

So I journey back now to your lonesome grave

Searching for one thing in my soul to save

'Cause when the gun went off I closed an open door

Now it’s locked and chained forevermore
