Xiu Xiu
Wreck on the Highway
What did you say it was, brother?
Who was it fell by the way?
When whiskey and blood run together
Did you hear anyone pray?
I didn't hear nobody pray, dear brother
I didn't hear anyone pray
I heard the crash on the highway
But, I didn't hear anybody pray
When I heard the crash on the highway
I knew what it was from the start
I went to the scene of destruction
And a picture was stamped on my heart
There was whiskey and blood all together
Mixed with glass where they lay
Death played her hand in destruction
But I didn't hear anyone pray
Their soul has been called by the Master
They died in a crash on the way
And I heard the groans of the dying
But, I didn't hear anyone pray
I didn't hear anyone pray, dear brother
I didn't hear anyone pray
I heard the crash on the highway
But, I didn't hear anyone pray
