Greenbriar

I thought I saw young Jesus Christ Underneath the Greenbriar Ridge Holding hands one August night Not far from where we lived I pass the days along the bridge And under lies a sea And broken glass was on the floor I never could believe I looked for her Jarvis Town Along the MonghaleeI looked for her in Williamstown Upon the Chesapeake I thought I saw Jesus Christ A hair's breadth from a brawl He turned his eyes away from me And saved me from my fall I asked this man who lived here Many years before Why do I feel cursed for having any faith at all And there I spoke to many of man Who claimed to lye with she He laughed into his whiskey Then he shook his head at me I thought I saw young Jesus Christ Underneath the Greenbriar Ridge Holding hands with you one night Not far from where we lived I pass the days along the bridge And under lies a sea And broken glass was on the floor I never could believe
