I had a lover, her name was Grace She found me down in a lonely place She dug me out with an old jaw bone She dressed me up for to take me home She fed me words that I could not taste, For I had no tongue, it had been replaced By a green and a growing flower which grew And I knew if I ever spoke, I would speak trueWe lived together in an old hotel A broke-down palace with a wishing well The neighbor girl taught me how to spell And how to steal what I could not sell But I fed my tongue on the Devils rum In a roadhouse run by a godless bum On a drunken night, with a stolen gun I shot my lover as she made to run The judge said, Son, what have you done? But I didnt speak a word, no I didnt speak one And the judge sent me away And they buried my Grace, yeah, the very next dayThey sent me out on a midnight train In the rain, rolling down through the dusty plain Four men sitting with an old shotgun, Silver stars pinned on every one They busted my mouth for to get at my tongue To see just how this had all begun So I opened my mouth like a dragons breath I only spoke truth, but it only brought death And I laid those boys to rest For the truth, in truth, is a terrible jestFor there aint no road but the road to home, There aint no crops but the ones youve sown And if you learn one thing from me You better guard your tongue like your enemy
