Reconcile Our Differences
Oh my dear,
When I was dreaming,
I wish you would take your lies elsewhere
Don't give them to me.
Oh my friend,
Old as you are,
How could I trust you as far
As I could throw your brother?
As to you my love,
My precious baby,
If I die be sure that you meet me up
Where I can stay with you.
Take my flesh,
And eat it down
Drink my blood for every pound you can brother.
We reconcile, our differences,
When I saw God and the devil walking on and on.
We reconcile, our different tastes,
When I saw the devil swimming in the Lord's swimming pool.
To drink his wine,
God forgive him,
Your falling angels doing fine
He's got you under boards.
Oh then God,
This dream may be done,
How he had given rise to him what would we care.
If there were no Judas,
Or there were no devil,
Where would God and this little boy be now?
No where I swear.
Oh it's said,
When it seems extreme,
When all we do is reconcile our differences here.
Bartender
And if I go, before I'm old
Oh brother of mine, please don't forget me if I go
And if I die, before my time
Oh sweet sister of mine, do not regret me if I die
Bartender, please fill my glass for me
With the wine you gave Jesus
That set Him free after three days down
Bartender, please fill my glass deep for me
With the wine you gave Jesus
That set Him free after three days down
On bended knees, I pray, Bartender please
On bended knees, God please
Oh, and if this gold, should steal my soul away
Oh mother of mine, please redirect me if this gold...
Bartender, please fill one up for me
Of the kind you gave Jesus
That set Him free after three days down
On bended knees, I pray, Bartender please
On bended knees, Bartender please
