Pearl, into the night You‘re running away The preacher is after you
Pearl, your brother, pearl On his way to being a man Looks after you so well
In between hate and love In between bad and good You ride into the night
The money is in your bunny That’s what the preacher wants Your father robbed the bank
Pearl, you’re starving, pearl And you’re not the only one You’re singing on the boat
In between hate and love In between bad and good You ride into the night
Oh pearl, if you look at The devil in the eye I’m sure, oh yes i’m sure He would do you no harm No bad religion there Only, only bad men We‘re not, we are not that bad But we lose our way
