War Baby lyrics

[Sample]
You think this boy Moss has got any notion of the sorts of sons of b*tches that are huntin' him?
Yes, old Moss-ba-a-a-a-a-a-ack
I'm going hunting

[Intro]
And when the season turns to rain (Oh)
War baby's grieving another day
Can't find the fire hose, the station's gone (Oh)
Storm's come to clean our Babylon (Oh)

[Chorus]
Yeah the wheels start turnin'
And the rain starts pourin' down
Battle hymns start hummin' (Hu-u-uh)
They descend upon our town
Yeah the gears start turnin'
And the blood starts drippin' down
The police ain't comin' (Oh)
Yeah they gave up on this town

[Verse]
Crackin' the bottle he's got the itch to bank rob
Local branch long closed, they better thank God
Been a minute since he took upon a take-job (Oh)
Nothing to take in this town except for crank-rock
Billy's back up on his feet I hear
Bad deals with bullets had him down all year
Teacher's the plug, barber's the surgeon (Oh)
Local misadventures had him thinking he could flip batter flapjack
Cry scapegoat
High stakes, lamb lost
Maybe come the mama, often come the grey wolf
Heard about a flock of sheep down in Waco
Burning at the altar led by Jesus with a Draco
[Bridge]
Droppin' the bottle he's got the urge to take off
Fell to his knees, way too late to beg God
Light through his eyelids
A terrible voice in his head starts repeating three syllables
It is done

[Chorus]
Yeah the wheels start turnin'
And the rain starts pourin' down
Battle hymns start hummin' (It is done)
They descend upon our town
Yeah the gears start turnin'
And the blood starts drippin' down
The police ain't comin'
Yeah they gave up on this town
(Oh)
(Oh)
