lirik lagu the mighty stef – john the baptist (part two)
well the bible says what’s done in darkness will be brought to light
and if the bible says it, who am i to doubt it?
but sometimes things and people, well they just vanish in the night
and you never hear another word about it
what happened down in texas, well it happened and that is that
and daddy i know you think it’s a disgrace
but the next time you mention texas, i don’t care how drunk you are
i’m gonna have to put you in your place
the wealthy undertaker to his daughter he does plead
“what, pray tell my love, will make you smile?”
“bring me the head of saint john the baptist
and maybe i’ll be happy for a while”
well i guess that b-st-rd had a reason for doing what he’d done
and word out in the street is that he hates me
i’d love to see him in the poor house, i’d love to put him in the jailhouse
it’s funny how much revenge will motivate me
as for that piece of garbage he likes to call his wife
who keeps a keen eye on his every penny
by the laws of the land or by the justice of the street
i’d love to fix it so that woman don’t get any
the gold digging mistress to the handsome young boy sings
in a tune that only crooked people know
“bring me the head of saint john the baptist
and i will take you with me when i go”
so he parked his truck in trenton down near the railroad tracks
he called her from a payphone in the station
but she was lying dead with no intention in her head
that ever would she be the boy’s salvation
says the good cop to the bad cop after fourteen solid hours
of beating his young suspect black and blue
“bring me the head of saint john the baptist
or may the lord shine mercy down on you”
says the good cop to the bad cop after fourteen solid hours
of beating his young suspect black and blue
“bring me the head of saint john the baptist
or may the lord shine mercy down on you”
may the lord shine mercy down on you
but the lord ain’t got no time for folks like you
