Where I lead me, I will travel
|
Where I need me, I will call me
|
I'm no fool, I'll be ready, God knows I will be
|
And in the meantime make a little money and buy a little mercy
|
|
Met this morning, now he loves me, says he loves me
|
It must be easy, look around you, all around you
|
But you see the motion, you're not movin'
|
You don't know how to hold on
|
Just keep it loose, don't get excited, it'll pass before long
|
|
Now one is goin' one is stayin'
|
One is silent one is saying'
|
Here's your coat, take care of yourself, sorry you're leavin'
|
A little sad, you're all I had will you be returnin'
|
|
The boys upstairs are gettin' hungry
|
You can shout in the wind about how it will be
|
Or you can clench your fist, shake your head
|
And head to the country I got no doubt about it my friend
|
That's where they'll find me, that's where they're gonna find me
|
|
Ask the boys down in the gutter
|
Now they won't lie cause you don't matter
|
The street's just fine if you're good and blind
|
But it ain't where you belong
|
|
Roll down your sleeves, pick up your money
|
And carry yourself home
|
Roll down your sleeves, pick up your money
|
And carry yourself home
|
