CRYING CREATURES OF THE UNIVERSE

I looked up I saw a light so bright
It was not enough for this dark night
War drums pounding and the bloody curtain raised
Gravedigger ready to dig new graves

Tora – Laura – Laura – Lou
Tora – Laura – Lay
Crying creatures of the universe
Every dog has its day

I count my blessings ‘till I can’t count no more
I know god’s grace when I walk in your door
And I feel your warmth and I leave the cold
And I fear the hatred that hides in my soul

Tora – Laura – Laura – Lou
Tora – Laura – Lay
Crying creatures of the universe
Every dog has its day

You and I were the wild bunch
Riding fast without a hunch
What evil awaits in our own dark hour
I put my trust in the beauty of a flower

Hey Lelila – Hey MaryJane
Everything is changing – everything stays the same
When the last dammed word is spoken
From the tower of Babylon
Don’t look for me – I’ll be gone
Back out on the road singing this song

Tora – Laura – Laura – Lou
Tora – Laura – Lay
Crying creatures of the universe
Every dog has its day
