HALLELUJAH C Gates
She’d a love to get away from here
Spend awhile living free from fear
High-tail it straight to OK-yo
Clean it up in the sunshine there
Clean him out of her golden hair
Spend awhile hanging in the Winnebago
Let her rip let it roll
Slide it on down
Blow through your hometown in the cold
Of the dawn
Later on he kicked her out
After that she had no doubt
She was going to make it on her own
The old man was hard and cursed
Couldn’t tell which was the worst
His fire or the seeds that she had sown
Let her rip let it roll
Slide it on down
Rip through your hometown in the cold
Of the dawn
And some do talk like they know about the girl
When she falters, when she falls
Reaches down inside
She won’t be denied
Double down now
Hear her howl! Ah-ooo!
Hallelujah
Sweet hallelujah
Hallelujah
In her soul
Hallelujah
Sweet hallelujah
Hallelujah
In her soul
In her soul
In her soul
In her soul
