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?
