I
had been
down in the valley so long, I had almost run out of respect
Got in
right up to my neck
Battered
but wise to the truth and the lies that no layman would ever accept
Reaching
for all of the good things in life can provide some surprises I guess
It may
be the way we are dressed
These threads
that you see mean so little to me, they don't count when they put us to
rest
Late
about
dusk I would start to feel, one more day had been lost
Nothing
I'd say ever seemed to convey how I felt with that I have dealt
All of
my children are healthy and sane, they may say anything that they like
Say anything
that they like
Sitting
alone in the Blue Ridge Saloon is no place for an angel to be
Ladies
make faces at me
Battered
but clean I had pulled my machine off the road, I was too tired to see
Wearing
a smile like the rim of a cup, I will get down to my final point
There is
no one left to annoint
And the
sowing of seed was it good, yes indeed, it thrills me but only to a
point
Use
your
imagination, try every trick in the book
My mother
said with the life that I led I'd be broke, holy smoke
All of
my children are healthy and wise, they may say anything that they like
Say anything
that they like
If they
want to preach and are not within reach, they may say anything that
they
like
Say anything
that they like
