Brooks And Dunn Borned And Raised In Black And White Lyrics

Borned And Raised In Black And White Lyrics

The wind blows hard across the Texas plains

 Makes some people go insane

 While others quietly pray for rain

 The's where we came from

 

 Two boys playing in the burning sun

 One with books and one with guns

 Mama calls but just one comes

 The other one runs

 

 With a Christian 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 black and white

 

 My brother took to the gospel road

 Spent his whole life saving souls

 When he looked at me and his blook ran cold

 He didnt even try

 

 I had no dreams and I had no plans

 But a gun felt good in my right hand

 Warden said 'How come you killed that man?'

 I said 'I dont know why'

 

 Welcome home sayd the hot moonlight

 We were born and rasied in black and white

 One lives to pray, one wants to die

 We were born and rasied in black and white

 We were born and rasied in black and white

 

 Someone handed me a cigarette

 They offered me my last request

 I asked my moral soul be blessed

 By someone close to me

 

 I came to him with trembling hands

 I swore I'd never understand

 He said its just what life had planned

 It's destiny

 

 So dont waste your tears on me tonight

 We were born and rasied in black and white

 You chose the dark, I chase the light

 We were born and rasied in black and white

 We were born and rasied in black and white

 

 The wind blows hard across the Texas plains

 Makes some people go insane

 While others quietly pray for rain
