Greenbriar

I thought I saw young Jesus Christ

Underneath the Greenbriar Ridge

Holding hands one August night

Not far from where we lived

I pass the days along the bridge

And under lies a sea

And broken glass was on the floor

I never could believe

I looked for her Jarvis Town

Along the Monghalee

I looked for her in Williamstown

Upon the Chesapeake

I thought I saw Jesus Christ

A hair's breadth from a brawl

He turned his eyes away from me

And saved me from my fall

I asked this man who lived here

Many years before

Why do I feel cursed for having any faith at all

And there I spoke to many of man

Who claimed to lye with she

He laughed into his whiskey

Then he shook his head at me

I thought I saw young Jesus Christ

Underneath the Greenbriar Ridge

Holding hands with you one night

Not far from where we lived

I pass the days along the bridge

And under lies a sea

And broken glass was on the floor

I never could believe
