Gillian Welch - Revelator
Darling remember, when you come to me
I'm the pretender; I'm not what I'm supposed to be
But who could know if I'm a traitor?
Time's the revelator
[Verse 2]
They caught the Katy, and left me a mule to ride
The fortune lady came along, she walked beside
But every word seemed to date her
Time's the revelator, the revelator
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Up in the morning, up and on the line
Drive into Corning, and all the spindles whine
And every day is getting straighter
Time's the revelator, the revelator
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
Leaving the valley, and fucking out of sight
I'll go back to Cali where I can sleep out every night
And watch the waves and move the fader
Time's the revelator, the revelator

Time (The Revelator) is the third studio album by American singer-songwriter Gillian Welch. All songs were written by Welch together with David Rawlings and were recorded at RCA Studio B, Nashville, Tennessee.
Welch said of recording "Revelator," "It was a mic test – the version on the record. Dave just said, 'play 'Revelator' and it was okay, let's try it and we used the mic test." Rawlings added, "We played it once and it was great because we hadn't played it in months. We got that first take feeling."
