Indian Summer Lyrics

Summer is lost now, the frost, it's closin' in To the cold gospel dollar a poor man walks in sin I can't get no entrance, the doors all in rows I pray into the distance, let me out of these heavy clothes
I beg, Indian summer, I need some return So hard to get warm where, it's so easy to get burned Down on the pavement, the laws are learned So hard to get warm where, it's so easy to get burned
When a sister called up, said how long you've broken down? I said there too much ice around here to find no solid ground While I just squeeze a season from this paper bag I pray to the burnin' tires and wrap my feet in rags
Singin', Indian summer, I need some return So hard to get warm where, it's so easy to get burned Down on the pavement, the laws are learned It's so hard to get warm where, it's so easy to get burned
The skies empty, the street is sweatin' tears Communion at the station for a million grindin' years Well, I'm ridin' out this century with the harvest engine sing From the church of mercenaries to a naked virgin spring
I'm singin', Indian summer, I need some return So hard to get warm where, it's so easy to get burned Down on the pavement, the laws are learned It's so hard to get warm where, it's so easy to get burned So hard to get warm where, it's so easy to get burned
Indian summer, to a naked virgin spring
