Absolution Blues lyrics

Bless me, Father, I have sinned, I ve broken hearts, got drunk on gin
An still I lust for sweet young things.
On the day that I was born, bells rang out in Babylon
Still I can t tell right from wrong, no matter what the Good Book says.

Now I can see the sun is shining,
But, I can feel the rain
Falling down to wash my tears away,
Wash my tears away.

Holy Mother, save your tears, you ve cried for me a thousand years
But, I was blind to all your fears.
Now I can t stop the tears from falling down.
Come the dawn of judgement day,
I ll get down on my knees and pray,
St. Peter don t you, don t you send me away.

Now I can see the sun is shining,
But, I can feel the rain
Falling down to wash my tears away.

Bless me, Father, I have sinned, I ve broken hearts, got drunk on gin
An still I lust for everything, every little thing
Come the dawn of judgement day, I ll get down on my knees and pray,
The Good Lord don t send me away, I ll never ever go.

Now I can see the sun is shining,
But, I can feel the rain
Falling down to wash my tears away.

Wash my tears away, I ll get down on my knees
Don t send me away, don t you send me away, no, no, no.
