Prodigal Son Lyrics


Passing through this life with so much regret
I feel like I haven't got over it yet
It takes so long for these wounds to heal
I'm knockin' down walls, takin' my time
I gotta get outta here
Where will I go?
Who will I become?
I'm comin' on like an elephant gun
Reaching for the piece of mind that I can't find
The sun keeps fading away
Searching for a feeling that will never come
The return of the Prodigal Son
Last night the moon seemed to look so empty, yeah
I feel into a pit of despair
Going no where I never thought that these wounds would heal
I fell to my knees, the rain came down
I swear I could touch the sky

What have I done?
What was I sold?
Hear the pop of my elephant gun
Reaching for the piece of mind that I can't find
The sun keeps fading away
Searching for a feeling that will never come
The return of the Prodigal Son
Reaching for the piece of mind that I can't find
The sun keeps fading away
Searching for a feeling that will never come
The return of the Prodigal Son, the Prodigal Son
This time has just begun
I finally found a feeling
The return of the Prodigal Son
Let's go ahead and give 'em there money's worth

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Robert Timothy Wilkins (January 16, 1896 – May 26, 1987) was an American country blues guitarist and vocalist, of African American and Cherokee descent.
His distinction was his versatility; he could play ragtime, blues, minstrel songs, and gospel with equal facility. Wilkins was born in Hernando, Mississippi, 21 miles from Memphis. He worked in Memphis during the 1920s at the same time as Furry Lewis, Memphis Minnie (whom he claimed to have tutored), and Son House. He also organized a jug band to capitalize on the "jug band craze" then in vogue.
