Night of the Hunter

Solvents glue and heroin she said

I don't want to do that at all

I took her to see

Robert Mitchum in

Night of the

HunterShelley

Winters has a vision of

Righteousness from up above

She trades her children for the love

Of a preacher with a soul decay

Chorus

Could it be the son went down to stay

The virgin

Mary sold herself today

Promise of the future and she feels

That he's still in love with her

Love and hate tattooed upon the

Knuckles of a preacher man

I could tell she wishes she were dead

A vacuole where she's been led

Forgetting of the father's son

On the day the law took that away

Chorus
