The Bootleg Saint
Lyricist:Sam Lewis Roberts
Come make your complaint to Bootleg Saint (He's been gone, keepin' on, keepin' on for your freedom) Black boots, brown skin, he's chemical roots He's taking back the city one sinner at a time
He'll sacrifice if you pay the price
He remembers a time when everything was alright We had water from wine, the streets were alive Then old Captain Industry, who sold his soul at Wounded Knee Bought himself a little property, the Saint had found his enemy
He'll sacrifice if you pay the price
The laws might sleep but they never die Lions for sheep, an eye for an eye He wears a ring with the brand of a three-legged dog Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
His rose-colored glasses cut through the fog The laws might sleep but they never die Lions for sheep, an eye for an eye
He came down on a storm cloud, hard as the Amazon rain (Took him on, took him on and on) And you can pay your respects in the form of a check He's taking back the city one sinner at a time
He'll sacrifice if you pay the price
The laws might sleep but they never die Lions for sheep, an eye for an eye The Bootleg Saint, well, he walks the line Between an everyman hero and a waste of time
