I saw the sun when the rain was gone
Over broken border land
There wasn't anyone around
Except me and this old broken man
A shaft of light tumbled through the clouds
Was dancing on the ground
Sometimes I swear the silence has got to be
The loudest sound
Well that old man he had this useless arm
That was lying on his lap
He said I used to ride the rodeo bulls
With a third loop resigned up suicide wrap
Last time I got so hung up
I thought I never would get free
Sometimes I swear this bottle son
I think it's drinking out of me
Hallelujah the sign says Jesus saves
Past the liquor stores and love and wasted days
The old man said it won't be long
Till I'm called on home
I'm gonna pick my courage up
As I stand before that thrown
I'm gonna ask dear Jesus sir
Would ya forgive me of my sins
Then pick me up and drop me in that chute
And let me ride that bull again
Hallelujah the sign says Jesus saves
Past the liquor stores and love and wasted days
Man everybody everybody needs to find love someplace
Hallelujah Jesus saves
The old man was sleeping in the sun
As I walked away
Found myself a barroom
Next to a vacant lot where the children were playing
Hallelujah the sign says Jesus saves
Past the liquor stores and love and wasted days
Man everybody needs to find love someplace
Hallelujah Jesus saves
