Sharp, sharp grind your teeth
You don’t have to stay up this…
Time, time ain’t always good
Ever since I was a little bitty kid
And I say...
Would you write me if I was lost at sea
Or am I gonna drown Lord, gonna drown?
Take these riches that you gave to me
Now I’m coming home, now I’m coming home
Down, down. Down went the bottle mama
It nearly killed your little boy
Oh these crimes, crimes oh they’re leading me away
Guess I was guilty from the very, very start
And I say...
Would you write me if I was lost at sea
Or am I gonna drown Lord, gonna drown?
Take these riches that you gave to me
Now I’m coming home, now I’m coming home
Lies, lies. Oh them dirty lies
They kept me moving like those eastern sands
I’m sorry mama that they made you cry
But they are the sins that have mad me a man
And I say...
Would you write me if I was lost at sea
Or am I gonna drown Lord, gonna drown?
Take these riches that you gave to me
Now I’m coming home, now I’m coming home
