A Bible & A Gun Lyrics - Singles - Steve Earle

There's a full moon out tonight 

And it's shining down on me 

And in that purest light 

Any fool could see 

That this highway is paved with sorrow 

And every mile is lined with pain 

And when the sun comes up tomorrow 

You'll be just as far away 

Now I hear her whisper soft and low 

Through every mile I run 

As I travel through this world of woe 

With a Bible and a gun

If a man was made to suffer 

I'm a mighty man I know 

From one heartache to another 

I've been burning down this road 

I've got one eye on the mirror 

And one eye on the line 

The end keeps growing nearer 

The past slips behind 

I don't mean to hurt nobody 

I don't mean to do no wrong 

But something out there's got me 

And it's pulling me along 

Photos 

Darkness is my shelter 

Emptiness, my light 

And stranger, heaven help you 

If our paths cross tonight
