[intro]
one, two—
one, two, three

[verse 1]
well, mama’s little martyr woke up with her face drawn on
what you gonna do? twenty-two, with your youth all gone
and all your awful glory don’t feel like it should
before you hang me for my story, lord, let me be understood

[verse 2]
oh, ’cause it ain’t about if, it’s about when
they put a weapon in my hand, now here i am, a heretic again
but i feel sure-footed, hope l’m going somewhere good
no time to sit and wonder, lord, let me be understood

[verse 3]
i used to walk around with shackles on my hands
back when i still needed you to tell me who i am
we were standing at the dawn, unaware of the flood
rain pours on and on, lord, let us be understood

[verse 4]
well, ain’t you had enough, living in this picture show?
move a little closer, but, oh, don’t let your demons show
but i wouldn’t go back even if i could
howling at the drunken thunder, lord, let me be understood

[verse 5]
well, friend, i’ve been restless and i’ve been unwell
but i have a heartbeat, and a trial to tell
you can sentence me to burn, if you feel that you should
but let the clock hands turn and turn, let us be understood

[verse 6]
call it revelation, call it in the air
boy, you can’t reach salvation from your rocking chair
you’re gonna shed a tear, gonna have to give blood
no time to sit and wonder, lord, let me be understood

[outro]
here in the monumental yonder, let me be understood
