Rick Springfield — Judas Tree

[verse 1] There's a Judas tree up on the hill, and a body's hanging there There's a Judas tree up on the hill, yeah, a body's hanging there Nobody wants to cut it down, nobody seems to care There's silver in his pocket babe, and there's blood upon his hands He put religion on a rocket, missionaries in the bad, bad lands, Yeah Love was in that Judas kiss, but nobody really understands [guitar solo] [Verse 2] Love is a curse, and you keep reeling from the blows What makes it so much worse, y'all think you're Juliets and Romeos That you keep runnin' to your mistresses, and your pretty gigolos [2nd guitar solo] [Verse 3] They say when you die hanging, you gеt hard as you go down They say when you die hanging, you gеt hard as you go down I think I'll cut poor Judas loose from the tree, and I'll take him underground
