Deliver Me
Rick Roberts
They followed him for seven days
And lost him when he turned away
From where they thought
He would surely go
But they caught him up in lewistown
And when they shot that convict down
They could hear him
Praying soft and slow
Deliver me
Let your waters wash over me
Deliver me
I'm lost and alone
And I wanna come home
She was just a simple girl
Been a step behind a changing world
Ever since the day that she was born
So she found herself a city gent
He loved her for a while and then
She cried as he walked out the door
Won't you deliver me?
Let your waters wash over me
Deliver me
I'm lost and alone
And I wanna come home
You've been loosin' and you're using
All your precious time
No use cryin'
You've been tryin' to stay ahead
Of what you left behind
You oughta stop tryin'
I've been here for oh so long
Only barely holding on
To everything I always thought was true
But all my diamonds turned to dust
There's nowhere I can't place my trust
Someone has the answer
But I don't know who
Won't you deliver me?
Let your waters wash over me
Well, deliver me
I'm lost and alone
And I wanna come home
Well, deliver me
Let your waters wash over me
Well, deliver me
I'm lost and alone
And I want you to deliver me (deliver me)
Baby, deliver me (deliver me)
Well, deliver me (deliver me)
Baby, deliver me (deliver me)
Oh, deliver me (deliver me)

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh (deliver me)
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh (deliver me)

Oh, deliver me (deliver me)
Oh, deliver me (deliver me)
Oh, deliver me (deliver me)
Oh, deliver me (deliver me)
Oh, deliver me (deliver me)
Oh, deliver me (deliver me)
