{Verse 1}
There are some saints that have been forgotten
Like most of my drunken prayers
They say there's a heaven. It's somewhere above the yonder
Where there's no more crosses to bear
And there's ghosts all along the highways
And there's storms out on the sea
My only hope is somewhere in that heaven
Someone says a prayer for me
{Chorus}
I've been ridin' stone blind horses
Never seen a reason to believe
Hey sweet Genevieve say a prayer for me
And the wild young cowboys; old drunks;
The paramours and thieves
{Harmonica Solo}
The high slurred whistle of a red-winged blackbird
Sounds like he's singin' oh that I might die
It's a song for those who have fallen
Unrepentant and with no more alibis
{Repeat Chorus}
{Outro}
Hey sweet Genevieve say a prayer for me
And the wild young cowboys; old drunks;
The paramours and thieves
