Citizen Cope - Salvation
------------------------------------------

Say judas came up to d.c.
hed been down in georgia for a while
he drove a 944
he bought with the soul
of a blonde-headed kid
with a left-handed guitar
now hes lookin for me
citizen c-o-p-e
sign the dotted line please
for the fake 50s
now judas answer me
since i was the age to speak
havent you been listening?
salvation
(chorus:)
salvation
salvation
salvation
im calling
salvation
Well he came to town
found the woman that i love
and he fucked her down
she told him where i live
off of 9th in the alleyway
where they say
they got the coke and the dope
until you end up broken
you should have let the smack get you he said
but now youve got to deal with me instead
im downstairs on the motorola
you know ive got 3 golden bullets
and im shooting for your soul
salvation
(chorus)
Well i came down with my martin blazin
my voice
it was cutting him up
now hes aiming
his first shot grazed my eye
i lost half of my sight
and my firstborns life
the second shot grazed off my guitar moon
and it made my guitar kinda play out of tune
but i just kept playing 
like i had nothing to lose
he turned the third on himself
cause the bastard knew
salvation im calling
salvation
(chorus)
Put the gun down
put the gun down
put the gun down
put the gun down
(repeat)
