| Ride the blue wind high and free
|
| She’ll lead you down through misery
|
| And leave you low, come time to go
|
| Alone and low as low can be
|
| And if I had a nickel I’d find a game
|
| And if I won a dollar I’d make it rain
|
| And if it rained an ocean I’d drink it dry
|
| And lay me down dissatisfied
|
| It’s legs to walk and thoughts to fly
|
| Eyes to laugh and lips to cry
|
| A restless tongue to classify
|
| All born to grow and grown to die
|
| So tell my baby I said so long
|
| Tell my mother I did no wrong
|
| Tell my brother to watch his own
|
| And tell my friends to mourn me none
|
| I’m chained upon the face of time
|
| Feeling full of foolish rhyme
|
| There ain’t no dark till something shines
|
| I’m bound to leave the dark behind
|
| Ride the blue wind high and free
|
| She’ll lead you down through misery
|
| And leave you low, come time to go
|
| Alone and low as low can be |
