Salvation Lyrics - Citizen Cope - Citizen Cope

Say, Judas came up to D.C. 

He'd been down in Georgia for a while 

He drove a 944, he bought with the soul 

Of a blond-headed kid with a left-handed guitar 

Now he's lookin' for me Citizen C O P E 

Sign the dotted line please for the fake 50's 

Now Judas answer me, since I was the age to speak 

Haven't you been listening? 

Salvation 

Salvation 

Salvation 

Salvation 

Well he came to town, found the woman that I love 

And he fucked her down, she told him where I live 

Off of 9th in the alleyway, where they say 

They got the coke and the dope until you end up broken 

"You should have let the smack get you" he said 

"But now you've got to deal with me instead" 

I'm downstairs on the Motorola 

You know I've got 3 golden bullets and I'm shooting for your soul 

Salvation 

Salvation 

Salvation 

Salvation 

Well, I came down with my Martin blazin' my voice 

It was cutting him up, now he's aiming 

His first shot grazed my eye 

I lost half of my sight and my firstborn's life 

The second shot knock off my guitar moon 

And it made my guitar kinda play out of tune 

But I just kept playing like I had nothing to lose 

He turned the third on himself 'cause the bastard knew 

Salvation 

Salvation 

Salvation 

Salvation 

Salvation, I'm calling 

Salvation, I'm calling 

Salvation, I'm calling 

Salvation, yeah yeah 

Say, put the gun down 

Put the gun down 

Put the gun 

Put the gun down 

Put the gun down 

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
