I'm on the dark side of a hollow hill
|
The sun comes up, babe, but it's hard to get my fill
|
Your blues are rapping and it fits my mood
|
I'm through with Bibles and I'm through with food
|
Somebody's calling, trying to track me down
|
And if I don't answer, I'd hang around
|
As side-passed lovers lost in the dark
|
I look for high ground for to build an ark
|
I can't remember when I felt so free
|
Maybe September, the year you believed in me
|
In 1900 and 99
|
When I found the angels a-drinking wine
|
Seems every castle is made of sand
|
The great destroyer sleeps in every man
|
Here comes my baby, here comes my man
|
With the silver dagger in his hand
|
Ooooh
|
With that silver dagger in his hand
|
