These crosses all over my body
Remind me of who I used to be
Gave myself up to Him, an offering
Let him make a woman out of me
I'm just a child but I'm not above violence
My momma raised me better than that
When the preacher talks, that man demands a silence
And daddy said "Shoot first and run and don't look back"
So take me down to the river
And bathe me clean
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Put me on the back of your white, white horse to run
All the way to the chapel, that you wash all over me
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
I've killed before and I'll kill again
Take the noose and wrap it tight around my hand
They say Heaven has no fury like a woman scorned
And, baby, oh, don't scare me, I've been touched before
So take me down to the river
And bathe me clean
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Put me on the back of your white, white horse to run
All the way to the chapel, that you wash all over me
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
These scars all over my body
Remind me of who I used to be
And Christ forgive these bones I've been hiding
Ooh, ooh, and the bones I'm about to eat
So take me down to the river
And bathe me clean
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Put me on the back of your white, white horse to run
All the way to the chapel, that you wash all over me
Yeah, ooh
Yeah, ooh
