lyrics

God laid me in a manger
God made me a saint
God laid me in a manger
God made me a saint
I suddenly become revealing
Alas I'm just a bastard son
God laid me in a manger
But I ain't no fucking chosen one

I wander east like a stranger
You sent me off to find my own
I wander east like a stranger
You sent me off with seed to sow
And I sowed from the dusk till' the morning
Alas I'm still a bastard son
God laid me in a manger
And I wander with my robes undone

Oh you looked so fine... Oh you looked so fine
Oh you looked divine
I want to take my time... I want to take my time
I want to make you mine... mine

I loiter the south for a danger
You sent me off to die some place
I loiter in hell for a danger
You sent me off to spite my face
But nothing burns me more than the feeling
That I'll always be your bastard son
God laid me in a manger
But I ain't no fucking chosen one

Oh you looked so fine... Oh you looked so fine
Oh you looked divine
I want to take my time... I want to take my time
I want to make you mine... mine

God laid me in a manger
God made me a saint
God laid me in a manger
God made me a saint
And I tried to find the proof of your treason but...
Who gives a fuck about the bastard son
God laid me in a manger
At least I'm not the only one
God laid me in a manger
At least I'm not the only one
