Redemption Blues lyrics

[Verse 1]

My time is drawing thinner

I'm just a tired old sinner

No chips left on this shoulder

No pride in growing older

[Chorus]

But when your borrowed time is through...

I'll be with you

Redemption blues

[Verse 2]

No man can truly outlast

All the mistakes of his past

There's no haven here for me

That's safe from my memories

[Chorus]

But when your borrowed time is through...

I'll be with you

Redemption blues

I'll be with you

Redemption blues

[Bridge]

And justice ain't no lady (I'll be with you)

She's a twisted, battered whore

She's laying bruised and naked (Redemption blues)

On a bloodstained wooden floor

Our days are over (I'll be with you)

Times have changed around these parts

There ain't no more cowboys (Redemption blues)

Only men with violent hearts

[Outro]

Redemption blues (My time is drawing thinner)

(I'm just a tired old sinner)

Redemption blues (My time is drawing thinner)

(I'm just a tired old sinner)

Redemption blues (My time is drawing thinner)

(I'm just a tired old sinner)

(My time is drawing thinner)

(I'm just a tired old sinner)

Redemption blues (My time is drawing thinner)

(I'm just a tired old sinner)

(My time is drawing thinner)

(I'm just a tired old sinner)

(My time is drawing thinner)

(I'm just a tired old sinner)

(My time is drawing thinner)

(I'm just a tired old sinner)
