Sally The Preacher by The Audreys Lyrics

Sally’s waiting by the corner
Bars don’t open here ‘til noon
Her hands are shaking like a sinner
She’s got to find salvation soon
Preacher standing at the doorway
With a smile to guide them in
His hands full of forgiveness
His heart of emptiness and gin
They found a place, they found a place
Found a place where their ghosts left them alone
So they called it home
Sally looks toward the churchyard
The flock are crowding all around
But she knows not to ask a seeker
For something he has never found
Preacher looks back to the corner
He’s seen that smile on her before
But he’s not one to sit in judgement
He’ll meet her later on the floor
They found a place, they found a place
Found a place where their ghosts left them alone
So they called it home
Sorrow makes a good companion
You know that you’re his only one
Though he may leave you to your slumber
He’s there in the morning with the sun
They found a place, they found a place
Found a place where their ghosts left them alone
So they called it home
