MARIA'S BED
Live 21 Apr 2005 version
Been on a barbed wire highway 40 days and nights
Ain't complainin', that's my job and it suits me right
I got a sweet soft fever rushin' around my head
I'm gonna sleep tonight in Maria's bed

Hey hey!
La la la la la la la

Got on a dead man's suit and smilin' skull ring
Lucky graveyard boots and a song to sing
Keep my heart in work and troubles in my head
And I keep my soul in Maria's bed

Hey hey!
La la la la la la la

I been up on sugar mountain, 'cross the sweet blue sea
I walked the valley of love and tears and mystery
I got run out'a luck and gave myself up for dead
Then I drank the cool clear waters from Maria's bed

Hey hey!
La la la la la la la
Hey hey!
La la la la la la la

She give me candy stick kisses 'neath a wolf dog moon
Sweet breath and she'll take you mister to the upper room
I was burned by the angels, sold wings of lead
Then I fell in the roses and sweet salvation of Maria's bed

I been out in the desert yeah doin' my time
Siftin' through the dust for fools gold, lookin' for a sign
Holy man said, "Hold on, brother, there's a light up ahead."
Ain't nothin' like the light shines on me in Maria's bed

Well I take my blessings at the riverhead
I'm living in the light of Maria's bed

Hey hey!
Whoaaa
Whoa!

@Tipsie79

no dude not for this one

it's for "Reno"

[jmtrapp]

Actually I thought the Parental Warining might have been because of Reno (I think that's the one) about a guy visiting a prostitute.

[Svetlana266]

Then I drank the cool clear waters from Maria's bed...........read the lyrics, He means riverbed. Reno has explicit lyrics, not this song. :)

[NiniahPijetah]

I love this man

[OneChillingFire]

He was hot when he was young and he is still HOT!!! :)

[MsBrucejuice]

Yea, but still a beautiful song

[bugattibowler]

That would be for "Reno."
