about

The chorus comes from a book of hymns I picked up somewhere along the way. It's a fairly popular hymn with several variations, I threw some reincarnation in there as well as an apology to the young lady I was seeing at the time.

lyrics

Ch: Lord, Lord wash me in the blood,
Won't you wash me in the blood of the lamb?
Lord, Lord, wash me in the blood,
So that I might be a better man.

Lord knows that I've been down
Yeah I have done you wrong,
But girl I'm looking for to change
And I'm starting with this song.

Say hello to blue skies now,
Say goodbye to them grey.
I long for to see you 'gain my love,
When you come in off that train.

When I die I want to be reborn
As a golden breasted swallow.
So I might know just what it is to fly
And never have to follow.
