Road to Calvary v1
Willie Nile
G D
Verse 1
I saw St. Christopher walking d owntown on main
With Black Madonna fingers holding a flame
I saw an e agle rising out of the bl ue
I heard a car crash it r eminded me of you
Verse 2
I saw a baby starve in North Africa
Too weak to cry, her tears fell down on the straw
I saw this orphan lift her wagabond eyes
Right at that moment I came to realise that
Chorus
You carry me ac ross the mighty river
You lift me up abo ve the raging s ea
You give me all this love you deli ver
Straight to my back porch on the road to calva ry
Verse 3
I saw this rich man with his bracelets of gold
Four cars, yacht and a mistress I'm told
Somewhere a restless wind blows out to the sea
Somewhere there is a place for you and for me
Chorus
Verse 4
Now if you're wondering where I was last night
With black madonna yeah she gave me a light
I guess there's not a whole lot more I can say
Just tell St. Christopher where all on our way
Chorus twice
That's all folks'
