I want to believe in myself once again
|
So I dream of a man whose hopes never end
|
To kiss with a girl who's as lovely as you
|
I'd give you my heart, if you gave me the truth
|
|
And for every tear that is lost from an eye
|
I'd dig me a well where no man could destroy
|
I want to believe in a freedom that's bold
|
But all I remember is the freedom of old
|
|
Well I lost me a wife, so I found me a plane
|
Flew all the way to California
|
This mess in my head is a mess getting out
|
Ya drink too much coffee, I drink too much stout
|
|
But after a while, when my mouth's not so dry
|
I'll dance up a storm, sure life's looking fine
|
But as darkness falls, I return to my bed
|
Don't ask me more questions, don't fuck with my head
|
|
I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
|
Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
|
I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
|
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
|
|
The buildings they shake but my heart it beats still
|
Oh mother of Jesus, I feel pretty ill
|
I want to go home where my feet both feel safe
|
But there ain't no jobs in the old free state
|
|
So I must remain in my new adopted land
|
I'm doing the best, Hell I'm doin' all I can
|
So next time you see me, don't ask for my name
|
For I am the King and sure long may I reign
|
|
I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
|
Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
|
I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
|
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
|
|
I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
|
Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
|
I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
|
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
|
