The Raven and the Dove

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I have prayed for wisdom Now I pray for peace It seems the more that I know now The less that I can sleep I stay imprisoned in my conscience Trying to figure what it means To be caught between a nightmare And the sweetest of dreams [Chorus] Some days a raven, some days a dove Some days the dark cloud hanging 'round Others from the light above I'm scuffed up by the devil, but I'm washed in the blood Some days a raven, some days a dove [Verse 2] You may question how I'm living It might scare you half to death I've been forgiven for my sinning But Lord knows I ain't through sinning yet I get my singing from my mama I get the fight from my old man I don't always know where I'm going But I know exactly what I am [Chorus] Some days a raven, some days a dove Some days the dark cloud hanging 'round Others from the light above I'm scuffed up by the devil, but I'm washed in the blood Some days a raven, some days a dove Some days a raven, some days a dove Some days the dark cloud hanging 'round Others from the light above I'm scuffed up by the devil, but I'm washed up in the blood Some days a raven, some days a dove Some days a raven, some days a dove
