Called to Madonna To give me a line She said boy what have you done Passing your time with a holy man Talking about the moon and sun But I can`t tell the difference Between the fool and wise Show me a river to follow Away from all these lies I`ve been on my own so long Won`t you lend me your hand I`ve been picking up my bones too long Won`t you understand Called to the captain To put me ashore For it looked like no man`s land Is this the way to follow I cried as I shook his hand He told me had no answer He didn`t really hold the key I am a simple man Was all he said to me I`ve been on my own so long Won`t you lend me a hand I`ve been out in the cold too long Won`t you understand I`ve been on the road so long Won`t you lend me your hand I`ve been out in the cold too long Won`t you understand Heard my mother crying She was calling out my name Whisper in the dark night Saying who`s to blame The hour glass keeps turning With not enought sand to see I am a holy man So don`t you bother me I`ve been on my own so long Won`t you lend me your hand I`ve been pickin` up my bones too long Won`t you understand I`ve been on my own so long Won`t you lend me your hand I`ve been out in the cold too long Won`t you understand? |
