Man In Need Lyrics - Richard Thompson

I packed my rags, went down the hill 

Left my dependents a-lying still 

Just as the dawn was a-rising up 

I was making good speed 

I left a letter lying on the bed 

From a man in need it read 

You know it's so hard to find 

It's so hard to find 

Who's going to cure the heart of a man in need 

All of my friends don't comprehend me 

Their kind of style it just offends me 

I want to take 'em 

I want to shake 'em 

'Til they pay me some heed 

You've got to ride in one direction 

Until you find the right connection

You know it's so hard to find 

It's so hard to find 

Who's going to cure 

The heart of a man in need? 

Who's going to give you real happiness? 

Who's going to give you contentedness? 

Who's going to lead you? 

Who's going to feed you? 

And cut you free? 

Well I've sailed every ship in the sea 

But I travelled this world in misery 

It's so hard to find 

It's so hard to find 

Who's going to cure 

The heart of a man in need?

Who's going to shoe your feet? 

Who's going to pay your rent? 

Who's going to stand by you? 

Who's going to cure the heart of a man in need? 

Of a man in need?
