lirik lagu warren zevon – jesus was a cross maker
written by judee sill 1972 emi blackwood music bmi
sweet silver angels over the sea
please come down flying low for me
one time i trusted a stranger
’cause i heard his sweet song
it was gently enticing me
but there was something wrong
and when i turned
he was gone
blinding me
his song remains reminding me
he’s a bandit and a heartbreaker
my jesus was a cross maker
sweet silver angels over the sea
please come down flying low for me
he wages war with the devil
with a pistol by his side
he’s always chasing him out of windows
and he won’t give him a place to hide
but he keeps his door
open wide
fighting him
he lights a lamp inviting him
he’s a bandit and a heartbreaker
my jesus was a cross maker
yeah, jesus was a cross maker
(here’s a verse ms. sill wrote, which warren leaves out:
maybe he thought he had enough thunder on this record, already:
i heard the thunder come rumblin’
the light never looked so dim
i see the junction git nearer
and danger is in the wind
and either road’s lookin’ grim
hidin’ me, i flee, desire dividin’ me
he’s a bandit and a heartbreaker.
oh, but jesus was a cross maker
yes, jesus was a cross maker)
