Funeral: There Is a Fountain/It Don't Make Sense Lyricsby . From Parade Funeral: There Is a Fountain/It Don't Make Sense by MOURNERS There is a fountain filled with blood Drawn from Immanuel's veins And sinners plunged beneath that flood Lose all their guilty stains, Lose all their guilty stains, Lose all their guilty stains, And sinners plunged beneath that flood Lose all their guilty stains. CRAIG The simple white coffin was carried by three of Mary's cousins and three of her young friends. MOURNERS The dying thief rejoiced to see That fountain in his day. And there may I, though vile as he, Wash all my sins away. CRAIG (overlapping) Several more friends volunteered to serve as pall-bearers, but they were deemed too small to shoulder the burden. Recent heavy rains made the North Georgia red clay soil glow, as Mary Phagan, just two months shy of fourteen, was laid to her final rest. FRANKIE God forgive me what I think. God forgive me what I wish right now. CRAIG Well, you must've known Mary pretty well. FRANKIE Yessir, I did. CRAIG Then this must be a mighty hard day for you. FRANKIE Did you ever hear her laugh? When she laughed, you swore you'd never cry again. Did you ever see her smile? Her smile was like a glass of lemonade. And she said funny things, And she wore pretty dresses, And she liked to see the pictures at the VFW Hall, And she loved ridin' swings, And she liked cotton candy, But I think she liked the pictures best of all: No, it don't make sense to me That she won't be around. No, it don't make sense to me To put her in the cold and lonely ground. And no, it don't make sense The way the world can let you fall--- I swear if don't make sense to me at all. MOURNERS Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood Shall never lose its pow'r: GIRL She had two crooked teeth: KID She had cuts on her fingers: SECOND GIRL She worked next to me last summer: THIRD GIRL Once a week we used to play: SECOND GIRL And she knew how to read: GIRL She would smile at the foreman: CHILDREN And I can't believe they took my friend away: MOURNERS & CHILDREN |No, it don't make sense to me| That she will not be there|No, it don't make sense to me. FRANKIE |When she laughed, you swore you'd never cry again. A MOTHER She loved when I tied ribbons in her hair: ALL And no, it don't make sense, They way the sun can still burn down. No, it don't make sense to me: FRANKIE God forgive me what I think. CRAIG Tell me, son, you got any idea who it was? FRANKIE God forgive me what I wish right now. I don't know the coward's name. I don't know the bastard's face. But I swear right now to God: He ain't never gonna get away with what he done to Mary! Let him quiver in his boots! Let him run until he bleeds! I won't rest until I know Hes's burning in the ragin' fires of Hell forevermore! MOURNERS There is a fountain filled with blood Drawn from Immanuel's veins: FRANKIE God forgive me what I think. God forgive me what I wish right now: MOURNERS (overlapping) And sinners plunged beneath that flood Lose all their guilty stains. [Thanks to AEJemspell@aol.com for lyrics]
