Staring At The Steeple
You followed me to Manchester
To meet the guy who says my name
You heard him say my name
You heard him say my name
And now you gotta know where he
stands from
Inside a booth or behind a desk
Or on his own two feet
Now we're gonna sit down,
Sit down face to face
I'm staring at the steeple,
I'm staring at the steeple
I wonder who's preaching
They say it's two women in there
They say one wears a robe,
One wears a crystal
One keeps time,
The other keeps a pistol
He sent me a check for a thousand dollars
I thought it was a gift
But boy was I wrong
Now I'm supposed to go and cash
his check
And give it out dollar at a time
Hand it out penny by penny,
penny by penny ~
I'm staring at the steeple,

I'm staring at the steeple
I wonder who's preaching
They say it's two women in there
They say one wears a robe,
One wears a crystal
One keeps time,
The other keeps a pistol
If I can't help you nobody can
If you can't talk to me,
who can you turn to?
If you don't make up your mind now
I'm going to make it up for you
The days are getting darker
and I'm all alone
We're practically married
but no you're never at home
I'm staring at the steeple,
I'm staring at the steeple
I wonder who's preaching
They say it's two women in there
They say one wears a robe,
One wears a crystal
One keeps time,
The other keeps a pistol
