Manna or Poison Lyrics by John Lucas

The Bible Belt Sessions, Vol. 2

2022

[Chorus]
\nOh field of mushrooms
\nAre you manna or poison?
\nSometimes, my god
\nIt’s so hard to know
\n
\n[Verse 1]
\nWhat doesn’t kill you makes you stronger
\nLeast that’s what the grave-diggers say
\nBut I don’t know how much longer
\nI can walk before I'm buzzard’s prey
\n
\n[Verse 2]
\nA man could live forever in this valley
\nIf he'd just had the strength to stand
\nOh the sorrows I could tally
\nBut I could dream anew on this land
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nOh field of mushrooms
\nAre you manna or poison?
\nSometimes, my god
\nIt’s so hard to know
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nOh field of mushrooms
\nAre you manna or poison?
\nSometimes, my god
\nIt’s so hard to know
\n
\n[Verse 3]
\nOh little forest flower
\nAre you my cabin by the stream?
\nAre you my strength to pass the hour
\nOr are you part of heaven’s schemes?
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nOh field of mushrooms
\nBe you foe or friend
\nOh manna or poison
\nI will join you in the end
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nOh field of mushrooms
\nBe you foe or friend
\nOh manna or poison
\nI will join you in the end\n\n
