Three Dog Nights

Three nights have passed He was dead to the world A pirate to some, a scoundrel to others Whiskey bottles littered the room On the third day He rose again from the dead His pal Johnny Walker by his side Walking was not in the cards He fell back into his shroud Buried A poor man with a heart of gold He believed in resurrection Many a time he proved this himself One day, in the back of his mind He hoped God would take him seriously
