16 Horsepower "Black Soul Choir"
No man ever seen the face of his foe, no
He ain't made of flesh and bone
He's the one who sits up close beside you, girly
And when he's there you are alone
/
Every man is evil, yes
And every man's a liar
Unashamed with the wicked tongue
Sing in the black soul choir
Oh, he rises in my way
Oh, he rises in my way
/
No man ever seen the face of my Lord, no
Not since he left his skin
He's the one you keep cold on the outside, girly
He's at your door, let him in
/
Every man is evil, yes
And every man's a liar
Unashamed with the wicked tongue
Sing in the black soul choir
Oh, he rises in my way
Oh, he rises in my way
/
I will forgive your wrongs, I am able
For my own I feel great shame
I would offer up a brick to the back of your head, boy
If I was Cain
/
Every man is evil, yes
And every man's a liar
Unashamed with the wicked tongue
Sing in the black soul choir
Oh, he rises in my way
Oh, he rises in my way
