These crosses all over my body Remind me of who I used to be Gave myself up to Him, an offering Let him make a woman out of me
I´m just a child but I´m not above violence My momma raised me better than that When the preacher talks, that man demands a silence And daddy said "Shoot first and run and don´t look back"
So take me down to the river And bathe me clean Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah Put me on the back of your white, white horse to run All the way to the chapel, that you wash all over me
Ooh Ooh Ooh
Ooh
I´ve killed before and I´ll kill again Take the noose and wrap it tight around my hand They say Heaven has no fury like a woman scorned And, baby, oh, don´t scare me, I´ve been touched before
So take me down to the river And bathe me clean Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah Put me on the back of your white, white horse to run All the way to the chapel, that you wash all over me
Ooh Ooh
Ooh Ooh
These scars all over my body Remind me of who I used to be And Christ forgive these bones I´ve been hiding Ooh, ooh, and the bones I´m about to eat
So take me down to the river And bathe me clean Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Put me on the back of your white, white horse to run All the way to the chapel, that you wash all over me
