The Raven and the Dove

[Verse 1]
I have prayed for wisdom
Now I pray for peace
It seems the more that I know now
The less that I can sleep
I stay imprisoned in my conscience
Trying to figure what it means
To be caught between a nightmare
And the sweetest of dreams

[Chorus]
Some days a raven, some days a dove
Some days the dark cloud hanging 'round
Others from the light above
I'm scuffed up by the devil, but I'm washed in the blood
Some days a raven, some days a dove

[Verse 2]
You may question how I'm living
It might scare you half to death
I've been forgiven for my sinning
But Lord knows I ain't through sinning yet
I get my singing from my mama
I get the fight from my old man
I don't always know where I'm going
But I know exactly what I am

[Chorus]
Some days a raven, some days a dove
Some days the dark cloud hanging 'round
Others from the light above
I'm scuffed up by the devil, but I'm washed in the blood
Some days a raven, some days a dove
Some days a raven, some days a dove
Some days the dark cloud hanging 'round
Others from the light above
I'm scuffed up by the devil, but I'm washed up in the blood
Some days a raven, some days a dove
Some days a raven, some days a dove
