[Verse 1] One morning after drinking Heavy in the night Every inch of my poor bones seemed to ache and moan in wait Cause all our troubles come tomorrow We'll be gone and then it's on to Christmas Day [Pre-Chorus] If Jesus had been born Just eleven days before Would the world have stopped to see At least those on the street Headed for Newtown And of all those on their way Could the miracle have made One lay his guns down? [Instrumental Chorus] Ooooo...yeah [Verse 2] That trigger stole his mind How am I to blame I bet you never even aimed at one There's too many people killing people To put an end to evil What can be done? [Pre-Chorus] Well for now who'd like to tell me On that morning when 27 fell How any lesson in counting Could ever, ever amount to watching them fall And why worst of all Come Christmas morning They'll still be gone [Instrumental Chorus] Oooo...yeah Oooo...Oooo [Outro] One morning after drinking Heavy in the night I stopped to take a look at the crook that stole this holiday Well this Christmas My only wish is We put these guns away
Yall performed this last night at Masonic Lodge. US TOO EMILY. That was me saying that out loud as you wiped your tears away (as were a whole bunch of us in the audience) It was, unfortunately, another week where your song bears repeating. You two were magnificent last night. Safe travels for the rest of your shows💜☮️🕉
Its about Sandy Hook. "Would the world have stopped to see, at least those on the street, headed for NEWTOWN. And of all those on the way, could a miracle have made one put his guns down."

[Verse 1]
One morning after drinking
Heavy in the night
Every inch of my poor bones seemed to ache and moan in wait
Cause all our troubles come tomorrow
We'll be gone and then it's on to Christmas Day
[Pre-Chorus]
If Jesus had been born
Just eleven days before
Would the world have stopped to see
At least those on the street
Headed for Newtown
And of all those on their way
Could the miracle have made
One lay his guns down?
[Instrumental Chorus]
Ooooo...yeah
[Verse 2]
That trigger stole his mind
How am I to blame
I bet you never even aimed at one
There's too many people killing people
To put an end to evil
What can be done?
[Pre-Chorus]
Well for now who'd like to tell me
On that morning when 27 fell
How any lesson in counting
Could ever, ever amount to watching them fall
And why worst of all
Come Christmas morning
They'll still be gone
[Instrumental Chorus]
Oooo...yeah
Oooo...Oooo
[Outro]
One morning after drinking
Heavy in the night
I stopped to take a look at the crook that stole this holiday
Well this Christmas
My only wish is
We put these guns away
Thanks so much love this music
The lines 'oooo...yeah' are actually 'Blue....ruin'

This is a work of pure genius, thank god for this gift.
Your god-talk is an insult to those who write songs. Keep your superstitions to yourself.
❤️❤️❤️
who's the one person that disliked this lol...just truly soothing.
Does anyone know what event they're singing about?
Sandy Hook possibly? Sad song regardless.
This song is about sandy hook.
@@endlessskies2860 Where did you get that ? I would like to read it ?
@@m1a1abrams93 "if Jesus had come 11 days earlier" - Sandy hook occured on december 14th. "when 27 fell" - 26 victims and the perpetrator were killed
