frank black - manitoba lyrics
up in manitoba
the sky was very blue
the people were a few
and nights were never colder
once i heard a wailing sound
the sky had turned to red
so i got up from my bed
and i wandered far from town
i have seen the face of god
and i was not afraid
i have seen the face of god
and i have dearly paid
the darkness came right down on me
there were no more lights to follow
so i slept inside the hollow
of a dead and fallen tree
did you know three days i tried
to wake myself? but, no
my flesh had turned to snow
and i thought that i had died
for i have seen the face of god
and i was not afraid
i have seen the face of god
and i have dearly paid
and though i had it rough
they got me home in time
they got me homemade wine
but it was not enough
the cold had made me dumb
and i was sent away
these walls are here today
for fifty years and some
yes i have seen the face of god
and i was not afraid
i have seen the face of god
and i have dearly paid [x2]
