Maria s Bed lyrics
Been on a barbed wire highway 40 days and nights
I ain t complainin , it s my job and it suits me right
I got a sweet soft fever rushin around my head
I m gonna sleep tonight in Maria s bed
Got on a dead man suit and smilin skull ring
Lucky graveyard boots and a song to sing
I keep my heart in my work but trouble s in my head
And I keep my soul in Maria s bed
I been up on sugar mountain, cross the sweet blue seas
I walked the valley of love and tears and mystery
I got run out a luck and give myself up for dead
And I drank the cool clear waters from Maria s bed
She give me candy stick kisses neath a wolf dog moon
One sweet breath and she ll take you mister to the upper room
I was burned by the angels, sold wings of lead
Then I fell in the roses and sweet salvation of Maria s bed
I been out in the desert yeah doin my time
Searchin through the dust for fools gold, lookin for a sign
Holy man said "hold on brother there s a light up ahead"
Ain t nothing like a light that shines on me in Maria s bed
Well I ll take my blessings at the riverhead
I m living in the light of Maria s bed
