Blue Ruin Lyrics - Such Jubilee - Mandolin Orange

One morning after drinking heavy in the night 

Every inch of my poor bones 

Seemed to ache and moan in wait 

Cause all my troubles, come tomorrow 

Will be gone and then it's on to Christmas day 

If Jesus had been born just eleven days before 

Would the world have stopped to see 

At least those on the street headed for Newtown 

And of all those on their way 

Could the miracle have made 

One lay his guns down

Blue ruin 

"That trigger stole his mind, how am I to blame?" 

I bet you never even aimed at one 

There's too many people killing people 

To put an end to evil what can be done 

Well for now who'd like to tell me 

On that morning when twenty-seven fell 

How any lesson in counting could ever 

Ever amount to watching them fall and why worst of all 

Come Christmas morning they'll still be gone 

Blue ruin 

Blue ruin

One morning after drinking heavy in the night 

I stopped to take a look 

At the crook that stole this holiday 

Well this Christmas, my only wish is 

We put these guns away
