A Rusty Old Halo Lyrics & Chords By Mavis Staples & Lucky Peterson

Rusty old halo
skinny white cloud
second hand wings
full of patches.
Rusty old halo
And a skinny white cloud
Robe that's so wooly
And it scratches.
I know a man rich as a king.
Still he just won't give his neighbors a thing.
His day will come, I'll make a bet.
He'll get to heaven and here's what he'll get.
Rusty old halo
A skinny white cloud
Second hand wings
Full of patches.
Rusty old halo
And a skinny white cloud
A robe that's so wooly
And it scratches.
While you're on earth, shine like a star.
Brighten the corner wherever you are.
Doing the best that you can do.
That way you're show them that heaven’s in you.
Rusty old halo
A skinny white cloud
Second hand wings
Full of patches.
Rusty old halo
And a skinny white cloud
A robe that's so wooly it scratches.
A robe that's so wooly it scratches.
A robe that's so wooly it scratches.
