(Waylon) The wind blows hard across the Texas plains Makes some people go insane While others quietly pray for rain That's where we came from Two boys playin' in the burnin' sun One with books, one with guns Mama calls, but just one comes (Willie) The other one runs
(All) In the crystal sense of wrong and right We were born and raised in black and white One learned to pray, one learned to fight We were born and raised in the black and white We were born and raised in black and white
(Kris) Brother took to the gospel road Spent his whole life savin' souls (Waylon) When he looked at me, his blood ran cold He didn't even try I had no dreams, I had no plans But a gun felt good in my right hand The warden asked, "How come you killed that man" I said, "I don't know why"
(All) "Welcome home," said the hot moonlight We were born and raised in black and white One lives to pray, one prays for life We were born and raised in black and white We were born and raised in black and white
(Waylon) Someone handed me a cigarette They offered me my last request I asked my mortal soul be blessed By someone close to me He came to me with trembling hands He swore he'd never understand I said, "It's just what life had planned "It's destiny
(All) "Don't waste your tears on me tonight "We were born and raised in black and white "I chose the dark, you chased the light "We were born and raised in black and white" We were born and raised in black and white
(Willie) Wind blows hard across the Texas plains Makes some people go insane (Kris) While others quietly pray for rain
