A Hymn That Only I Know Lyrics by The Berries

Throne of Ivory

2020

I came into town and threw my weight around
Everything i stood for don't mean nothing now
Touch upon the fur, it calms you as you go
Up and down the streets of a city you don't know
I've been telling lies, I've been playing the fool
If I knew any better I'd say I was cruel
Down along the south side, over to the north
Life is just a poor man's chore
I came in the hard way, over that old hill
Big as any mountain, getting bigger still
A hymn that only I know races through my mind
Sounds a lot like Jesus asking for a dime
Throw your friends under the bus as you go
From one place to another, you're taking it slow
On down past the south side, just beyond the north
Lifе remains a poor man's chore
I cry out like a banshee in thе night now
The word from up above says I'm going down, down, down, down
Now you're climbing aboard my red land raider
Can't talk now, we'll speak much later
Love and devotion knows no creator
