I Am the Beggar Man Lyrics by The Drowning Men

All of the Unknown

0

I'm aged and I am poor I hear my death bell toll
I am the beggar man, come, guide me by my hand
And on the spinning wheel there is no choice
Or will is this cruel or am I blind
And on a sleepless night I wake up as your son
Fortune grab my hand, take me as your one
And on this spinning wheel there is no choice or will
Is this cruel or am I blind?
Born with a bastard's heart, born with the serpent's tongue
I used to take it all, I used to leave em' none
And now the wheel it turns and it gives a spinning world
And I'm just there without will
My father told me, son, money can set you free
Well, here's the beggar man, look how tall I am
And on this spinning wheel now I'm a hollow log
Is this cruel, or is this where I belong?
And I'm a part of her fate
I'm a part of her wicked game
And now that I am clenched inside her filthy fist
This is the same one that carefully once blew a kiss
She took my cruelest part and she tortured it
And then she placed me, right there inside of it
Ah, Miss Fortune, just give me one more chance
Take me to the wheel and give me one more spin
For I am old and gray, concrete is where I lay
Are you cruel or is this where I belong?
And I'm a part of her fate
I'm a part of her wicked game
And in this crooked world, I am the beggar man
Oh Miss Fortune, come take me by my hand
And take me to the wheel, just give me one more spin
Are you cruel or is this where I belong?
And I'm a part of her fate
I'm a part of her wicked game
