Текст песни: Lord Have Mercy + перевод

I caught a glimpse of your body by the river

I was alone and the sky went forever

I was the one that killed your father in the first world war

I once vowed to love your sister for a lifetime

Took her to the altar and left her like a wind chime

That was the dawning of the age of the cannibal world

Lord have mercy on my soul, have mercy Lord

Mama, have mercy on my soul

I took your wild peacocks down to the sawmill

And ground their bones into dust and blood meal

A rainbow of feathers and shame fell upon my wicked hand

Lucy, my love, get inside my Grand Torino

I tell you little girl don’t go into the jungle

There’s a million hungry insects there

And man, they’re going to eat you alive, yes, they will

Lord have mercy on my soul, have mercy Lord

Mama, have mercy on my soul

Cold dead moon don’t stare at me

With your bony judgmental eye

Only the peacocks and earthly things

Can judge me as they pass by

Can judge me as they pass through this world

Judge me as they pass by

Lord, he has my number under the thunder in his hand
