Pensacola Lyrics by Joan Osborne

Pensacola Lyrics

    Well, I found him in Pensacola
    In a trailer in the sand
    The man from the picture
    Creased and yellowed in my hand
    Creased and yellowed in my hand

    He was squinting and stubbled
    And standing in the door
    He said, if you've come to take the car away
    I don't have it anymore
    I don't have it anymore

    He got the gospel on the radio
    And the gospel on tv
    He got all of the transcripts
    Back to 1963
    Back to 1963

    He said I sold my blood for money
    There wasn't any pain
    But I just can't stand the feeling
    It's in someone else's veins
    It's in someone else's veins

    Momma took me aside
    And she tried to change my mind
    She said, don't waste your time in looking
    There's nothing, nothing left to find
    Nothing, nothing left to find

    So I left him down in Pensacola
    In a trailer in the sand
    The man from the picture
    Creased and yellowed in my hand
    Creased and yellowed in my hand
