Too many times you're gonna go out river walking Too many times you come in late Too many times you suck yourself out of the scene It makes you walk up straight It makes you walk up straight Too many times you trade the bottle for the body One drop for breath and one for skin You say nobody knows the truth about your body Are you tired and thing? Are you tired and thin? But if I were a good man Would it really happen Would you walk me home then, everyday from work But maybe I'm a good man, wait and let it happen I believe in love, I'm married to my work Cause I could be your father, I could be your brother I could be your flower, rise up in the dirt We were born to live here we were born to die here And you know this when you work Yeah you watch me when you work And When you are free from the work of the towns Well You know what to do with your hands Listen, I'm sure, you've got a few ideas And when you wake from the shell of this body How will you sink your ghost in a man Well I hope you've got something better up your sleeve Too many times you cleaned your love dry for your family And roll over in your sleep Roll over twice and hold the burden like a man Something you can keep, something you can keep You smell the scent of something burning in the kitchen He smells the future on the lawn These are the things we come to recognize as truth We cut the right into wrong, we cut the right into wrong But if I were a good man Would it really happen Would you walk me home then, everyday from work But maybe I'm a good man, wait and let it happen I believe in love, I'm married to my work Cause I could be your father, I could be your brother I could be your flower, rise up in the dirt We were born to live here we were born to die here And you know this when you work Yeah you watch me when you work It seems that we used to live like rebels But now we get scared like our parents Our struggling faith Its just a waste of money And when you wake up tomorrow my son Yeah, you will be the father of something terrible It will shine throughout your life Oh it won't bury you Cause we know Somewhere in the darkness You will find love baby You will find love You will feel young again And you will feel young
