| I started out at the end of the road
|
| Realized I had a good ways to go
|
| I had no supplies, no lover to hold
|
| It got cold, it got cold
|
| And I spit on the pavement
|
| And stuck to the wheat
|
| And choked on the ruthlessness inside of me
|
| Oh it’s just blood on your knees, blood on your knees
|
| Oh no it ain’t time to die
|
| Quit wallowing, wasting, wondering «why me?»
|
| And just pick up your feet
|
| Stopped at a station with lottery lights
|
| It promised a fortune on this lonely night
|
| You were rude with my money
|
| And cruel with my dreams
|
| Yeah I tripped over nothing
|
| And fell down and grieved
|
| Oh it’s just blood on your knees, blood on your knees
|
| Oh no it ain’t time to die
|
| So quit wallowing, wasting, wondering «why me?»
|
| And just pick up your feet
|
| Ohbaby are you feeling sorry for yourself?
|
| Are you mad that you got dirty?
|
| Are you blamin' someone else?
|
| Ooh ah
|
| Oh it’s just blood on your knees, blood on your knees
|
| Oh no it ain’t time to die
|
| So quit wallowing, wasting, wondering «why me?»
|
| And just pick up your feet
|
| Oh just pick up your feet |
