Pentacostal Lyrics by Mark Lanegan, Duke Garwood

Black Pudding

2013

[Verse 1]
Down so long now, Jesus
You know I been down so long
Far turned out and freezing
Won't you carry my body home?
[Chorus 1]
This is why I came
To live a life in a day
With a fire in my head
[Verse 2]
Who's got the keys to the workhouse?
Satan has locked the door
Got no wings to take us
Up off of that killing floor
[Chorus 2]
Is this why you came?
To handle a snake
And wear a new starry crown?
[Verse 3]
There's no phoenix rising
To a mansion up on the hill
This albatross I'm riding
Is a train just standing still
[Chorus 3]
This is how I came
With a stench and a stain
To be washed in the blood
