If I was good. I'd tell everyone I know. If I was free. I wouldn't be so keen to go. . If I was wrong. I would take it like a man. If I was smart. I would get out while I can.
I had a dream I was lost at sea,. Sorrow's cloud came down on me. Stranded out on a boat made of fire,. Running on desire. . Lord have mercy on my every sin.
Barricades and brickwalls. Won't keep me from you. You can tie me down on a railroad track. You can let that freight train loose. Iron bars and big old cars.
It's a long long way to home again,. Carryin' a heavy load.. Wake God's child before the dawn,. Pure as a pot o' gold.. And when you go to sleep at night,.
When the fire burns out here. It's brighter than the city lights. Warmer than a heart of gold. And dingo's howl just to break the silence. . The sun comes up just to break the cold.
A little bird told me late last night. If I hold my breath and do everything right. You might come back. If I color my hair and I wear it down. And I make you laugh like a circus clown.
I still cry for Baby Jesus. And I still pray when I'm alone. And when I'm lost. He'll come to find me. Because he died to save my soul. . When I can't walk he's there to carry.
Well this flower is my soul. But it's not half of what I owe. I should give you every rose that ever grew. But take this one here for a start. And you can keep it in your heart.
