Holy Roller Songtext
von The Union

There′s crows in the steeple bell
Bullfrogs in the wishing well
Busted hinge on the graveyard gate
Dirty needles in the collection plate
There's a preacher in the county jail
Mixing gin and holy water with a rusty nail
Bless the boys, now they′re drunk as hell
Screaming "Hallelujah" above the riot bell

So you could be a holy roller
With a crucifix and a four-leaf clover
Throw his arm over your left shoulder
The devil keeps his friends near but his enemies closer


Good girl never did no wrong
Never dream of hurting no one
She wore a rabbit's foot and her mother's ring
Round her neck on a banjo string

So you could be a holy roller
With a crucifix and a four-leaf clover
Throw his arm over your left shoulder
The devil keeps his friends near but his enemies closer

Now she′s wearing her skirt way up high
Who needs to an end when the dope runs dry
She′s a bag of bones in the shady pines
Left there for the dogs to find

So you could be a holy roller
With a crucifix and a four-leaf clover
Throw his arm over your left shoulder
The devil keeps his friends near but his enemies closer

His friends near but his enemies closer
The devil keeps his friends near but his enemies closer
