The Diaz Brothers Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Cops and robbers, strictly bargain line
Spent the wet night tracking visions through the pines
Draw my arms into my hospital gown
See the sky open and rain down
Rain down

[Refrain]
Mercy for the Diaz brothers
Mercy for the Diaz brothers

[Verse 2]
Hear my rivals on the western wind
Hard to know who might or might not be your friend
Work by the Plutonian light
Forbidden rosary prayers all night
All night

[Refrain]
Mercy for the Diaz brothers
Mercy for the Diaz brothers

[Bridge]
Beam of the flashlight
All night in the woods
Hunt us like dogs
And then string us up for good

[Verse 3]
Keep one step ahead of enemies
Foretell worse things than such frightful nights as these
Lead us to the beach by our hands
And bury us there in the sand

[Refrain]
Mercy for the Diaz brothers
Mercy for the Diaz brothers
Mercy for the Diaz brothers
Mercy for the Diaz brothers
