Barbed Wire Halo

[00:00:01] Barbed Wire Halo

[00:00:10] Well God bless Texas

[00:00:13] And Deakon Shackleford

[00:00:16] He read the bible seven times

[00:00:19] And he believed every word

[00:00:22] That ol' beat up leather book had been through it all

[00:00:28] He sat on the back pew so he could chew him a chaw

[00:00:34] Singing

[00:00:34] "Amazing Grace

[00:00:37] How sweet the sound"

[00:00:41] That saved a wrech like me

[00:00:47] He carried candy for the kids in his Sunday dress coat

[00:00:54] He'd take me fishin' after church

[00:00:57] And taught me things I needed to know

[00:01:00] No Deakon didn't have a family

[00:01:03] Lord knows he wished he did

[00:01:06] He told the whole congregation that I was his grandkid

[00:01:12] And today he joined up with Jesus

[00:01:16] Wearing shiny pearl snaps

[00:01:19] We sang a few gospel hymns

[00:01:22] And then the soldier played taps

[00:01:25] I bet he's walkin' with Pete down the street paved with gold

[00:01:31] Showin' off his brand spanking new wings

[00:01:37] And his barbed wire halo

[00:01:39] He married sweet Emma Grace before the war was through

[00:01:51] She held his right arm next to his anchor tatoo

[00:01:56] He was on a ship off at sea when she died in child birth

[00:02:03] He lost his whole world from the far side of the earth

[00:02:10] He lost the will to love

[00:02:13] He lost the will to live

[00:02:16] Until he met a man who taught him to forgive

[00:02:22] Yeah life took him to hell and back

[00:02:25] To hell and back a time or two

[00:02:28] But in the end he beat the devil until he was black and blue

[00:02:34] Singing

[00:02:35] "I once was lost

[00:02:37] But now I'm found

[00:02:41] Was blind

[00:02:43] But now I see"

[00:02:47] And today he joined up with Jesus

[00:02:50] Wearing shiny pearl snaps

[00:02:53] We sang a few gospel hymns

[00:02:57] And then the soldier played taps

[00:03:00] I bet he's walkin' with Pete down the street paved with gold

[00:03:06] Showin' off his brand spanking new wings

[00:03:11] And his barbed wire halo

[00:03:15] Before he went he made me promise him that I wouldn't cry

[00:03:22] And though I told him that I wouldn't I couldn't help but lie

[00:03:29] Cause today he joined up with Jesus

[00:03:33] Wearing shiny pearl snaps

[00:03:34] We sang a few gospel hymns

[00:03:37] And then the soldier played taps

[00:03:41] I bet he's walking with Pete down the street paved with gold

[00:03:48] As sure as the old church bell still rings

[00:03:53] He always said he had country in his soul

[00:04:00] He's showing off his brand spanking new wings

[00:04:05] And his barbed wire halo

[00:04:07] Sweet chariots coming forth to carry me home
