I've died a thousand times since you left me I stared down the barrel of a thousand loaded guns I caught a midnight ride headed somewhere To be born again with the rising of the Southern sun I woke to dawn washing over Memphis I'm seeing through the eyes of a newborn child I remember you always hated Elvis So I think I might stay here a while Resurrection Resurrection Cheap perfume and cheaper whiskey She winked at me when she said last call And when the parking lot was empty We made love in a bathroom stall With "Jesus Is Love" written on the wall Resurrection Resurrection You see I died a thousand times since you left me And I stared down the barrel of a thousand loaded guns I caught a midnight ride on a fast train headed somewhere To be born again with the rising of the Southern sun To be born again with the rising of the Southern sun To be born again with the rising of the Southern sun I am your Southern son I am your Southern son
