| I turned back towards the factory
|
| With a rail running through my head
|
| And the stain of a rust red romance
|
| Though my iron age rose is dead
|
| Will the Lord hold me down 'cause I’m wicked?
|
| Will the Lord hold me down, to my shame?
|
| Will your love it get into me Jesus?
|
| Now I heard you calling out my name
|
| The moon don’t smile on Saturday’s child
|
| Lying still in Elysian Fields
|
| I don’t know what the doctor, he did
|
| Now I’m all day long with my body in bed
|
| Plant the seeds of an ivory white lily
|
| Play the ghost of autumn’s lullabye
|
| You know the way I came down to the city
|
| Snuffed the love light out of my eyes
|
| I’m knocked back in the alley
|
| With the sweat pouring off my hands
|
| I can tear out a stitch 'cause it’s aching
|
| When I’m a shake, shake, shaking I can
|
| The moon don’t smile on Saturday’s child
|
| Lying still in Elysian Fields
|
| I don’t hear what my mother, she said
|
| Now I’m all day long with my body in bed
|
| I turn back towards the factory
|
| With a rail running through my head
|
| And the stain of a rust red romance
|
| Though my iron age rose is dead
|
| Will the Lord hold me down 'cause I’m wicked?
|
| Will the Lord hold me down, to my shame?
|
| Will your love it get into me Jesus?
|
| Now I heard you calling out my name
|
| The moon don’t smile on Saturday’s child
|
| Lying still in Elysian Fields
|
| I don’t know what the doctor, he did
|
| Now I’m all day long with my body in bed |
