Climb On the Cross Lyrics


Well tell the televangelist he's out of a job
'Cause I look good on a cross and I can sure sing along
Overrated, under-educated, simple and dry
Who knew a man's fate was such a hard thing to findI never listened to my teacher
Trusted every word my preacher would say
Always thought the crosshair was simply the sun on my faceIf nothing dies tomorrow
Why remember yesterday
When an hour or more of sleep might do you good
It's the wish I can't remember
Yeah it's the things you'll never say
And I'd do it all again oh if I could
Fight your family and friends and let them know you're the best
Tattoo "radical" right across your chest
No need for a lover, you were born to impressEverybody always told me if I made a funny face it would stay
So you better get hip, and take a liking to me looking this waySo many years without a memory
Just ears, a nose, a face
Oh, to find out fucking up was in your bloodIt's the wish I can't remember
It's the things you'll never say

And I'd do it all again, oh, if I could
If nothing dies tomorrow
Why remember yesterday
When an hour or more of sleep might do you good
It's the wish I can't remember
Yeah it's the things you'll never say
And I'd do it all again oh if I couldAnd I'd do it all again oh if I could
I'd do it all again, I'd do it all again
I'd do it all again, I'd do it all again

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

As Shakey Graves, Rose-Garcia from Austin, Texas, He plays a gnarly composite of blues and folk as a one-man-band of epic sonic proportions. The sound emitted from his hollow body guitar, mildly distorted amp and suitcase drum belie the young singer’s lean frame. He fingerpicks while keeping time with a double-pedal kick drum, hitting a snare fitted into his suitcase drum and a tambourine fashioned to its side. And when he sings, Rose-Garcia unleashes an unearthly howl.
