AND SHE SAID MERRY CHRISTMAS

AND I HAD A DREAM IN WHICH I SAW MY GRANDMA AND I SAW HER SMILE

AS SHE GENTLY TOOK MY HAND AS SHE GENTLY TOOK MY HAND…

I HEARD HER SAY MERRY CHRISTMAS COME GRANDSON AND SING WITH ME ALLELUIA, THE GREAT DAY IT’LL SOON BE AND A GREAT DAY IT WILL BE

MERRY CHRISTMAS. MERRY CHRISTMAS

AND I HEARD HER SOFTLY WHISPER A SPECIAL BABY WAS BORN TODAY ALLELUIA, COME AND PRAY WITH ME AND SING AROUND THE CHRISTMAS TREE OH, AROUND YOUR CHRISTMAS TREE

AND HOW I’VE MISSED MY GRANDMA SINCE THE DAY LONG AGO THAT SHE DIED AND I REMEMBER HOW I CRIED

AS A LITTLE BOY THAT I ONCE WAS

AS THE LITTLE BOY THAT I ONCE WAS

AND I’LL REMEMBER THAT SMILE IT SEEMS TO GLOW JUST FOR ME

AND SHE SAID SHE’D COME BACK IN MY DREAMS ON CHRISTMAS EVE

IN MY DREAMS ON CHRISTMAS EVE

BEEN THE ONLY ONE

WHEN I KNEW LITTLE PURPOSE, YOU BECAME THE ONLY ONE AND WHEN THERE WAS RAIN, YOU STAYED THE ONLY ONE…. BRINGING SOME LIGHT, GIVING ME STRENGTH

THROUGH ALL THE STORMS, YOU BEEN THE ONLY ONE AND I KNOW THERE’LL NEVER BE ANOTHER ONE…

LETTING YOU IN…. YOU’RE HOLDING MY HEART

SO SCARED TO DEATH, I CAN ONLY HOLD MY BREATH YOU CAME IN THROUGH PLACES

THAT I HAD LONG SINCE SEALED THROUGH THE YEARS AND TOO MANY TERS ONLY YOU FROM A MILLION FACES

ONLY YOU FROM A MILLION FACES

I TRIED TO RESIST YOUR PULL

DON’T KNOW WHY, HAD TO SAY GOOGDBYE BUT I NEVER FELT SO EMPTY

ALWAYS FELT SO LOST

YOU KEPT WALKING AROUND IN MY MIND

OF A MILLION PEOPLE, YOU SEEM TO KNOW ONLY ME OF A MILLION PEOPLE, I ONLY KNOW YOU

YOU HOLD THE CODE TO MY HEART EVEN WHEN MY HEAD KEEPS US APART

BUT OVER AND OVER, I STILL FEEL THE PAIN I REFUSE TO THINK ANYMORE

BUT MY LOVE DOESN’T WANT TO GO BUT DOESN’T KNOW

END OF THAT WHOLE MESS

AND IT’S THE END OF THIS WHOLE MESS!

HOW MUCH MORE OF THIS AGAIN AND AGAIN?

I NEED LESS BRAUN AND MORE BRAIN MEMBRANE GOD, I’M GLAD IT’S OVER, I GOTTA CONFESS

JUST THE END OF MY LATEST BIG MESS

NO SENSE FOR THE BIG BIG PRETEND STAR-CROSSED LOVERS FROM THE START HE WAS FRESH OUT OF THE ARMY

SHE JUST HANGING WITH A GIRLFRIEND WITH HER GIRLFRIEND

LOVERS FIRST MAYBE FRIENDS LAST SOMETHING MISSED ALONG THE WAY THEY STARTED FAST, ENDED FASTER

DOOMED SOON TO BE A THING OF THE PAST IN THE PAST…

LIFE’S JOURNEY DOLES OUT THE PAIN HIS EMPTY SOUL TO MY BROKEN HEART

MY SHATTERED DREAMS AND FALSE HOPES IF THERE’S A SUN, I GET ALL THE RAIN

A LOT OF RAIN……

EAST OF EDEN and WEST OF HELL

SOMEWHERE EAST OF EDEN AND WEST OF HELL IN EAST OKLAHOMA, IT’S JUST A LITTLE TOWN

THAT WREAKED HAVOC OF MORE WRONG THAN RIGHT BAD JUSTICE THAT LET A LOT OF GOOD MEN DOWN AND WHEN IT WOULD END, NOBOBY COULD TELL N NOBOBY COULD TELL

IN THIS LITTLE PLACE, FEW PEOPLE TOOK UP THE FIGHT OH, EAST OF EDEN AND SOMEWHERE NEAR HELL. SOMEWHERE NEAR HELL

MANY INNOCENT LIVES WOULD SOON BE LOST TO FIND A KILLER NO MATTER WHAT THE COST TO THE COPS, RON WILLIAMSON WAS THEIR MAN

FOR THE SAVAGE MURDER OF ONE DEBBIECARTER AND THOUGH THERE WAS NO SHRED OF EVIDENCE

FOR MORE THAN 10 YEARS HE LIVED ON DEATH’S ROW

HIS DAD, MOM, AND SISTERS HIS LIFE SEEMED SO LONG AGO FEW BELIEVED IN HIM…COPS KNEW THE TRUTH ALL ALONG THE SYSTEM KNEW IT HAD TO MAKE RIGHT WHAT WAS WRONG AND IT DID JUST THAT ONE DAY TO FREE AN INNOCENT MAN BUT IT WOULD BE A BITTERSWEET TIME FOR WILLIAMSON.

WILLIAMSON WAS NOT THE POLICE’S ONLY CROOKED DESIRE THERE WAS DENNIS FRITZ THAT ALSO HAD THEIR EYRE ANOTHER INNOCENT MAN FRAMED FOR THE SAME CRIME

THOUGH BOTH WOULD SURVIVE, THE TOLL WAS EXTREME WILLIAMSON WAS TERMINAL .THERE’D BE NO BIG DREAMS ALWAYS TO BE A

PRISONER AND DEATH WOULD BE SOON…

BESIDES THE CRIME AGAINST ONE DEBBIE CARTER THE COPS, THE JUDGE WORE THEIR SUIT OF ARMOUR

THEY PAID OUT A FEW DOLLARS ALL COVERED IN BLOOD POWER CORRUPTS, ABSOLUTE POWER CORRUPTS ABSOLUTELY THEY AVOIDED CHARGES, PRISON AMONGST ALL THE MAYHEM ‘CAUSE THEY WERE LAWMAN WAY ABOVE ANY GREAT LAW.

(JESUS BOOGIE) DID YOU HEAR

WHAT THEY DI D TO HIM? (C.C.M.)

DID YOU HEAR WHAT THEY DID TO HIM? DID YOU HEAR WHAT THEY DID TO HIM? NAILED HIM TO A CROSS

AND LEFT HIM ALONE TO DIE.....

OH, DID YOU HEAR WHAT THEY DID TO HIM? HEAR WHAT THEY DID TO HIM............

OH, THEY PUT HIM ON A CROSS ON A CROSS

AND HIS PEOPLE, OH.....THEY FELT THE LOSS FELT THE LOSS

THEY ASKED, WHY'D THEY DO THIS TO HIM DO THIS TO HIM)

AND HIS CHANCE'S, OH....THEY'RE LOOKING VERY DIM LOOKING VERY DIM

BUT THE BELIEVERS, OH......THEY WILL NOT GIVE UP WILL NOT GIVE UP

THEY DANCE ALL AROUND, SO HE CAN CLEARLY SEE SO HE CAN CLEARLY
