A Rusty Old Halo Lyrics by The Browns

The Old Country Church

1967

[Chorus]
Rusty old halo, skinny white cloud
Second hand wings full of patches
Rusty old halo, skinny white cloud
Robe that's so wooly it scratches
[Verse 1]
I know a man rich as a king
Yet he won't give his neighbor a thing
His day will come, I'll make a bed
He'll get to heaven and here's what he'll get
[Chorus]
A rusty old halo, skinny white cloud
Second hand wings full of patches
Rusty old halo, skinny white cloud
A robe that's so wooly it scratches
[Verse 2]
While here on Earth shine like a star
Brighten the corner whereever you are
Doing your best, the best you can do
Then you'll bе sure that they'll nevеr hand you
[Chorus]
A rusty old halo, skinny white cloud
Second hand wings full of patches
Rusty old halo, skinny white cloud
A robe that's so wooly it scratches
A robe that's so wooly it scratches
