A Bible And A Gun Lyrics

by Steve Earle

There's a full moon out tonight

And it's shining down on me

And in that purest light

Any fool could see



That this highway is paved with sorrow

And every mile is lined with pain

And when the sun comes up tomorrow

You'll be just as far away



Now I hear her whisper soft and low

Through every mile I run

As I travel through this world of woe

With a Bible and a gun



If a man was made to suffer

I'm a mighty man I know

From one heartache to another

I've been burnin' down this road



I've got one eye on the mirror

And one eye on the line

The end keeps growin' nearer

The past slips behind



I don't mean to hurt nobody

I don't mean to do no wrong

But somethin' out there's got me

And it's pulling me along



Darkness is my shelter

Emptiness my light

And stranger, heaven help you

If our paths cross tonight
