Oh, Father, lay me down
I got holes in me
They put holes in me
Oh, Father, let me go
Cut me loose and rest my bones
Oh, Father, bless my soul
Way down in the gravel
I got fire
And I got rain
I got scars on my back
I left my bridges burning
I got scarred doing that
I left no witness finding out
I left no witness
Oh, Father, let me go
Cut me loose and rest my bones
Oh, Father, bless my soul
Way down in the gravel
I got fire
And I got rain
I got fire
And I got rain
I got stones on my back
They make a good man heavy
I got stoned doing that
And I don't know what hit me Lord
Oh, Father, let me go
Cut me loose and rest my bones
Oh, Father, bless my soul
Way down in the gravel
I got fire
And I got rain
I got fire
And I got rain
Take my soul
And give me peace
And let me go
Oh, let me be
I'm raising hell
I'm raising hell
I'm raising hell
I'm raising hell
Gotta run with it
Gotta run with it
Gotta run with it
Gotta run with it
Oh, Father, let me go
Cut me loose and rest my bones
Oh, Father, bless my soul
Way down in the gravel
I got fire
And I got rain
I got fire
And I got rain
Take my soul
And give me peace
And let me go
Oh, let me be
Oh, Father, let me go
