Red Clay Halo Paroles

And it shows on Sunday clothes
I'll do my best with the soap and water
But the damned old dirt won't go
But when I pass through the pearly gates
Will my gown be gold instead?
Or just a red clay robe
With red clay wings
And a red clay halo for my head?

Now it's muddy in the spring
And it's dust in the summer
Winter blows in the crimson tide
Until trees and leaves
And the cows are the color
Of the dirt on the mountainside
But when I pass through the pearly gates
Will my gown be gold instead?
Or just a red clay robe
With red clay wings
And a red clay halo for my head? So I'll be good and muddy
When I get to the other side
But when I pass through the pearly gates
Will my gown be gold instead?
Or just a red clay robe
With red clay wings
And a red clay halo for my head?
