Lyrics Chris Rea – Gospel Trail
Text:
You got lovers
Hiding at night
There’s a certain kind of fear in her eyes
Cos the preacher say what she doing ain’t right
He see his bread of life
Quickly turning stale
All along
This gospel trail
Quickly turning stale
All along
This gospel trail
I got my brother and my best friend
Choking on your book of lies
I saw you kill the truth with your eyes
Made everybody look like a fool
I saw the good Lord’s words
Written on a bomb of nails
All along, all along
This gospel trail
I see blood run like a river
Cos of all your mistakes
Your song of compassion
Turned out to be just a fake
So now the innocent on both sides
They’re gonna scream and wail
All along, oh all along, along
This gospel trail
