You can make me cry;
Never say goodbye
Now the moon is almost hidden;
The stars are beginning to hide;
The fortunetelling lady;
Has even taken all her things inside
He said, Are you lookin' for somethin' easy to catch?;
I said, I got no money. He said, That ain't necessary.
The pump don't work;
'Cause the vandals took the handles
Seen the arrow on the doorpost;
Saying, "This land is condemned;
All the way from New Orleans;
To Jerusalem."
I'll give you more gold;
Than your apron can hold;
If you'll only let your hair hang low
You lose yourself, you reappear
Tell her she can look me up if she's got the time.
I still got my voice left, I can take it anywhere I go
It's many a guard;
That stands around smilin',;
Holdin' his club;
Like he was a king.
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you.
But the enemy I see wears a cloak of decency,;
All non-believers and men stealers talkin' in the name of religion
It's too hot to sleep time is running away
So take heed, take heed of the western wind
I been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down
You're so damn nonchalant;
But it's your mind that I want.
You could make me cry if you don't know.
Don't follow leaders;
Watch the parkin' meters
You think you can hide but you're never alone,;
Ask Lot what he thought when his wife turned to stone.
When destruction cometh swiftly;
And there's no time to say a fare-thee-well,;
Have you decided whether you want to be;
In heaven or in hell?
Always on the outside of whatever side there was,;
When they asked him why it had to be that way, "Well," he answered, "just because."
We never thought we could ever get old.;
We thought we could sit forever in fun
They say you're usin' voodoo, I seen your feet walk by themselves
Lot of water under the bridge, Lot of other stuff too;
Don't get up gentlemen, I'm only passing through
Sometimes I feel so low-down and disgusted
Do I need your permission to turn the other cheek?;
If you can read my mind, why must I speak?
Oh what dear daughter 'neath the sun;
Would treat a father so,;
To wait upon him hand and foot;
And always tell him, "No"?
We grew up together;
From the cradle to the grave;
We died and were reborn;
And then mysteriously saved.
Something there is about you that brings back a long forgotten truth
