Betrayed by a kiss on a cool night of bliss;
In the valley of the missing link
You can't get to glory by the raising and the lowering of no flag.;
Put your goodness next to God's and it comes out like a filthy rag.
And the dirt of gossip blows into my face,;
And the dust of rumors covers me.
if every bone in his body was broken he would never admit it
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
When I met you, baby,;
You didn't show no visible scars.
And you, you took me in,;
You loved me then;
You didn't waste time.
Don't you know there's nothing new that's under the sun?;
Well, there ain't no man righteous, no not one.
don't criticize;
what you can't understand.
Well, you're on your own, you always were,;
In a land of wolves and thieves.
It's mighty funny;
the end of time has just begun
Sometimes I wanna take to the road and plunder
It's all been designed, he said, "To make you lose your mind,;
And when you go back to find it, there's nothing there to find."
And you never ask questions;
When God's on your side.
He said, Are you lookin' for somethin' easy to catch?;
I said, I got no money. He said, That ain't necessary.
Every brain is civilized,;
Every nerve is analyzed,;
Everything is criticized when you are in need.
But even the president of the United States, Sometimes must have, To stand naked.
Your loyalty is not to me;
But to the stars above
No, no, no, it ain't me, babe
You have explained every mystery.;
What can I do for You?
I'm in the streets;
With the tombstone blues
You will search, babe, At any cost.;
But how long, babe, Can you search for what's not lost?
Goodnight, my love, may the lord have mercy on us all.
You don't need a weather man;
To know which way the wind blows
In the home of the brave
Jefferson turnin’ over in his grave
Ain't complaining 'bout what I got;
Seen better times, but who has not?
Handy dandy, he got a basket of flowers and a bag full or sorrow
Saw you drift into infinity and come back again
I am hanging in the balance, of the reality of man;
like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand
Most of the time;
I can't even be sure;
If she was ever with me;
Or if I was with her.
