Yes, Jesus was a cross maker
And either road’s lookin’ grim
He’s a bandit and a heart breaker
Tho there was somethin’ wrong
Fightin’ him he lights a lamp invitin’ him
'Cuz I heard his sweet song
But when I turned he was gone
'Cuz I heard his sweet song
A pistol by his side
Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flyin’ low for me
One time I trusted a stranger
Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flyin’ low for me
Blindin’ me, his song remains remindin’ me
But when I turned he was gone
One time I trusted a stranger
He’s a bandit and a heart breaker
Hidin’ me, I flee, desire dividin’ me
And won’t give him a place to hide
And it was gently enticin’ me
And danger is in the wind
Blindin’ me, his song remains remindin’ me
He keeps his door open wide
Sweet silver angels over the sea
He’s a bandit and a heart breaker
Tho there was somethin’ wrong
I see the junction git nearer’
And it was gently enticin’ me
Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker
He’s a bandit and a heart breaker
Sweet silver angels over the sea
He wages war with the devil
And tho he chases him out windows
Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker
I heard the thunder come rumblin’
Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker
Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker
The light never looked so dim
Please come down flyin’ low for me
