Lyrics

0:01Holy Man
0:19Called to Madonna
0:20To give me a line
0:22She said boy what have you done
0:25Passing your time with a holy man
0:29Talking about the moon and sun
0:32But I can't tell the difference
0:36Between the fool and wise
0:39Show me a river to follow
0:42Away from all these lies
0:47I've been on my own so long
0:48Won't you lend me your hand
0:53I've been picking up my bones too long
0:56Won't you understand
1:01Called to the captain
1:02To put me ashore
1:04For it looked like no man's land
1:08Is this the way to follow
1:11I cried as I shook his hand
1:14He told me had no answer
1:17He didn't really hold the key
1:21I am a simple man
1:24Was all he said to me
1:28I've been on my own so long
1:31Won't you lend me a hand
1:35I've been out in the cold too long
1:38Won't you understand
2:39I've been on the road so long
2:41Won't you lend me your hand
2:46I've been out in the cold too long
2:48Won't you understand
2:53Heard my mother crying
2:56She was calling out my name
3:00Whisper in the dark night
3:03Saying who's to blame
3:07The hour glass keeps turning
3:10With not enought sand to see
3:14I am a holy man
3:17So don't you bother me
3:21I've been on my own so long
3:23Won't you lend me your hand
3:25I've been pickin' up my bones too long
3:30Won't you understand
3:34I've been on my own so long
3:37Won't you lend me your hand
3:41I've been out in the cold too long
3:43Won't you understand
Holy Man
Called to Madonna
To give me a line
She said boy what have you done
Passing your time with a holy man
Talking about the moon and sun
But I can't tell the difference
Between the fool and wise
Show me a river to follow
Away from all these lies
I've been on my own so long
Won't you lend me your hand
I've been picking up my bones too long
Won't you understand
Called to the captain
To put me ashore
For it looked like no man's land
Is this the way to follow
I cried as I shook his hand
He told me had no answer
He didn't really hold the key
I am a simple man
Was all he said to me
I've been on my own so long
Won't you lend me a hand
I've been out in the cold too long
Won't you understand
I've been on the road so long
Won't you lend me your hand
I've been out in the cold too long
Won't you understand
Heard my mother crying
She was calling out my name
Whisper in the dark night
Saying who's to blame
The hour glass keeps turning
With not enought sand to see
I am a holy man
So don't you bother me
I've been on my own so long
Won't you lend me your hand
I've been pickin' up my bones too long
Won't you understand
I've been on my own so long
Won't you lend me your hand
I've been out in the cold too long
Won't you understand
