Somebody, somebody will give me water I'm a dying man won't you give me water My baby took my love and left me on a desert I feel the taste of salt and I gotta have air to breathe That girl she stole my heart and left me in misery Why don't you give me

And all you're ever gonna be is mean Someday I'll be living in a big old city Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me Why you gotta be so mean? (Why you gotta be so mean) You, with your words like knives And swords and weapons that you use against

I say yeh yeh, that's what I say I say yeh yeh We gotta do that, we gotta do that I got my answer, the only thing I can say We'll play a melody and Turn the lights down low so that none can see And there'll be no one else alive In all the world 'cept you

What's understood ain't gotta be explained Baby you understand me now If sometimes you see that I'm mad Don't you know no one alive can always be an angel When everything goes wrong, you see some bad But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good Oh lord

Gotta be above it And I know that I gotta be above it now And I gotta bide my time as a face in the crowd And I cannot let them all just bring me down I'll just close my eyes and make so that all the things don't affect me now And I know that I can't let

They'll never catch me I'm running for the river Gotta run, gotta run Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance 'Cause the river's been high and there ain't no goin' back You can ride, you can fly, you can tell them that you drive But there ain't

Love comes again Just when I've broken down I found Love can come again Of paths to be chosen All trails that we trek Shall lead us back to here Because our You gotta believe that You have become

Don't you think they'd know what I'm worth? I'm high as a kite Flying like a beautiful bird Why I gotta come down to earth? I think I'm going parasailing Miles above, it's so serene I'm letting go of all the troubles That I've seen, that I've seen Way up

Boy, you gotta carry that weight Carry that weight a long time Boy, you gonna carry that weight I never give you my pillow I only send you my invitation And in the middle of the celebrations I break down You're gonna carry that weight along time

(Hey) I took a couple of my dawgs on a lick Do or die, gotta survive, pay the rent (Survive) I was so broke that I could cry, I was sick (Broke) Born in the wild, so many trials, I ain't quit All the people I robbed, I brought 'em down, I repent (Down)
