Rosanne Cash - 50,000 Watts Lyrics

It’s a hard road but it fits your shoes
Son of rhythm, brother of the blues
The sound of darkness, the pull of the oak
Everything is broken and painted in smoke

[Pre-Chorus:]
But there’s a light on Sunday, a new design
The sound of the whistle, those radio wires
Love in your future, I’ll wait for you there
Put 50,000 watts of a common prayer

[Chorus:]
50,000 watts of common prayer
50,000 watts of common prayer

To be who we are and not who we were
A sister to him, a brother to her
We’ll live like kings without any sin
Redemption will come, just tune it all in

[Pre-Chorus:]
But there’s a light on Sunday, a new design
The sound of the whistle, those radio wires
Love in your future, I’ll wait for you there
Put 50,000 watts of a common prayer

[Chorus:]
50,000 watts of common prayer
50,000 watts of common prayer

My common prayer
Your common prayer
50,000 watts of common prayer
