Blood on the Banjo Lyrics

I know, I know,
if there's blood on the banjo tonight,
then I really must have been doing something right.
I know, I know
that I'll be awfully cold
when I get outta that aquifer with a cleaner soul.

I know, I know
what I see may not be true
but, I sure as hell know that my grass is blue.
I know, I know
if my fingers bleed tonight,
then I sure as hell must have been doing something right.

I know, I know
our souls may not be old
but I sure as hell know that our hearts are made of gold,
I know, I know
what I see may not be true,
but I sure as hell know that our grass is blue.
(gold, blue, gold.)
