I've become a glad man singing a song
|
About a soldier on a good and a fallen angel
|
Naked as a fish and a high
|
About a sad man climbed up a willow bough
|
And the cops are on the fence around a dog in the manger
|
And the mouth of the river is wide
|
Wide...
|
|
I've become a glad man singing a song
|
By the bushes, by the gas pump
|
Gon' the flower and a constant star collides
|
About a sad man singing they forgotten how
|
And the baby quit sucking when the milk went sour
|
And the mouth of the river is wide
|
Wide...
|
|
About a sad man lost in the hammock sway
|
When the bridal gown came on and spit out the window
|
And the cops say the dog won't bite
|
And the sad man's saying they forgot him how
|
And the blood running black in the valley shadows
|
And the river running all the while
|
|
I've become a glad man singing a song
|
About a lover rolled over, said you must be tired
|
And the truth coming towards the light
|
About a sad man knocking on a chapel door
|
And a burned out boat called "Tried by Fire"
|
And the mouth of the river is wide
|
Wide...
|
