Heathen Ways

Everybody wants to be your friend

Everybody wants to do you in

Everybody wants to know what you’re hiding from

So come and join in our heathen ways

Save your regrets for later days

We know you’ve got mouths to feed

We know you’ve got boundless needs

We know you’’ll accept no one’s charity

So come and join in our heathen ways

Save your regrets for later days

In this life there’s nothing free

So grab your gun and follow me

If you want something you gotta take it fast

Empty pockets and a bottle of booze

You know you ain’t got a lot to lose

So come on boy and join the gang at last

The man you are ain’t the man you were

The medicine don’t prove to cure

You thought a certain way but now you ain’t so sure

So come and join in our heathen ways

Save your regrets for later days

The hand you drew is a tragedy

The lord don’t seem to hear your plea

The path is clear you may as well see where it leads

So come and join in our heathen ways

Save your regrets for later days
