1/29/1999 alternate lyrics

Oh my dear,
When I was dreaming,
I wish you'd take your lies elsewhere
Don't give them to me.

Oh my friend,
Old as you are,
How could I trust you as far
As I could throw you brother?

And to you my love,
My precious baby,
If I die be sure to eat me up
Where I can stay with you.

Take my flesh,
And eat it down
Drink my blood for every pound you can my love.

We reconcile our differences,
When I saw God and the devil walking on and on.
We reconcile our different tastes,
When I saw the devil swimming in the Lord's swimming pool.

To drink his wine,
God forgive him,
Your falling angels doin' fine
He's got you under boards.

Oh then God,
This dream may be done,
How he had given rise to him what would we care.

If there were no Judas,
Or there were no devil,
Where would God and this little boy be now?
No where I swear.

And oh it's said,
When it seems extreme,
Well all we do is reconcile our differences here, here.
Bartender
main lyrics
If I go before I'm old
oh, brother of mine, please don't forget me
if I go

Bartender, please, fill my glass for me
with the wine you gave Jesus that set him free
after three days in the ground

Oh, and if I die before my time
oh, sweet sister of mine, please don't regret me
if I die

Bartender, please, fill my glass for me
with the wine you gave Jesus that set him free
after three days in the ground
bartender, please, fill my glass for me
with the wine you gave Jesus that set him free
after three days in the ground, in the ground

I'm on bended knees, I pray, bartender, please

When I was young, I never think about it
now I can't get it out of my mind

I'm on bended knees, father, please

Oh, and if all this gold should steal my soul away
oh, sweet mother of mine, please redirect me
if this gold

Bartender, you see, the wine that's drinking me
came from the vine that strung Judas from the devil's tree
his roots deep, deep in the ground
bartender, you see, the wine that's drinking me
was the wine that strung Judas from the devil's tree
his roots deep, deep in the ground, in the ground
watch the light

I'm on bended knees, oh, bartender, please
I'm on bended knees, father, please

When I was young, I never think about it
now I just wanna run and die

I'm on bended knees, oh, bartender, please
bartender, please
