Come rise you greater men
Still of mind and dark within
They won’t come, they won’t face the question.

A small meal, the meat of hog
Just pay the man then fetch my dog
They won’t come, they won’t face the question

Now he’s southside
A long way down
As i think about it now he’s
On the other part of town
His prayers are light
His form is down
As i think about it now he’s
On the other part of town.

There’s markings on her hand
So her lover understands what working
On the sounds without her around will allow him, will allow him
Will allow him

Take the knife, the folly blade (there’s markings on her hand so her lover understands)
Cut inside, scorch your way (what working on the sounds without her around will allow him, will allow him)
These tracks are no places to play (will allow him, will allow him)
Pray move aside
Please step away

Take the knife, the folly blade (there’s markings on her hand so her lover understands)
Cut inside, scorch your way (what working on the sounds without her around will allow him, will allow him)
And i will never never never fall
And i will never never never fall

I’m followed by a mighty sage (there’s markings on her hand so her lover understands)
He whispers to me night and day (what working on the sounds without her around will allow him, will allow him)
That i will never never never fall
That i will never never never fall
