Oh, Blind Willie, that man could see
What we can only dream about
Oh, Blind Willie, my one and only peace
That I can't do without
Oh, Blind Willie
Now I can smell the burnt out hell you lived in
The damp newspaper making up your bed
The stinging eyes that died
When you were just a child
Oh I swear that I have cried
For you Blind Willie
Oh, Blind Willie
I pray each night
You sleep without a fever
I pray each night
You don't feel the winter cold
Willie B and Angelina are with you now
And peace like sunlight
Wraps around your soul
Oh Blind Willie
