Riding on down the open road
I'm on a straight line
Yeah I was on my way to the holy ghost
When the devil rolled by
From the fire to the ashes the angels call
To find a home
Didn't know what I had had till I found it gone
Now I'm waiting all day long
For a century song
I'll sit and wait for a century song
Write it all down before you die
The lesson I'm learning
Yeah I was soaking wet in a cold black lie
That I couldÂ've been burning
Like a choir from the rifle the bullets sing
To find a home
I don't care whatever you think the future brings
That'll only take too long
Like a century song
I'll sit and wait for a century song
From the fire to the ashes the angels call
To find a home
Didn't know what I had had till I found it gone
Now I'm waiting all day long
For a century song
I'll sit and wait for a century song
Like a century song
I'll sit and wait for a century song
