Harrisburg [Live]

Sang sad Misereres to that moon
Was burned to make way for a train, for a train
And if evil exists it's a pair of train tracks
He didn't make Heaven and he didn't make Harrisburg
It seems like they always left soon
Romero sank into a dream
And the devil is a railroad car

It's a long way to Heaven, it's closer to Harrisburg
Could have got married in the revival man's tent
He died in a hole in between
Could have stayed somewhere but the train tracks kept going
Slipped like a shadow from the family he made
And if evil exists it's a pair of train tracks
And if evil exists it's a pair of train tracks
It's a long way to Heaven, it's closer to Harrisburg
In a little white house by the woods
Others say God's a drunkard for pain
And me I believe that the Garden of Eden
She knew he was gone for good
And that's still a long way from the place where we are
There ain't no reviving what's gone
Some say that man is the root of all evil

And the people he ran with, they moaned low and painful
It's a long way to Heaven, it's closer to Harrisburg

And the devil is a railroad car
The rose at the altar withered and wilted

And that's still a long way from the place where we are
And that's still a long way from the place where we are
Dropped the kids at the mission with a rose for the virgin
