lyrics

That slow freight’s running
Like a back country line
I’m running out of reasons
Like we’re running out of time
Went to see my Beulah
With her whisper and her bells
And her cold black fields
Right outside of life itself

Oh Sweet Beulah
Where’s that love you lost
Oh Sweet Beulah
In that cold December frost

I went to see my Beulah
Lord, what did I see?
Branches wrapped like ribbons
On that good and evil tree

Knots up in her belly
And her feet beneath the ground
I listened to her sing
I listened to her sound

Oh Sweet Beulah
Where’s that love you lost
Oh Sweet Beulah
In that cold December frost

I been to Lincoln
Lord, I love that town
But I ain’t never seen it
Lay the good and evil down

Dead but not forgotten
As the city walks on by
They can’t hear the sound
Of the good and evil cry

Oh Sweet Beulah
Where’s that love you lost
Oh Sweet Beulah
In that cold December frost
Oh my Beulah
Lay your sweet black eyes on me
Oh my Beulah
And the good and evil tree
