fall down grave man
looking for the good
oh remember younger days
a wink and he was sure
no not now that it seem
this old fool's got to pay
where's a young chicken for him
he find her for her play

he found her for a day

so excuse me ma'am
looking for some love
oh hither babe
won't you give me a stir
play your water i see
i give you what i've got
what could i get for fifty bucks
a kiss and i'll get shy

bought then tossed away
oh innocense betrays against against
girl bought tossed away
read no one forsake her

man i say here
get yourself off the ground, ground
her father she don't know her man
keep your head down on the down low
i would not worry
i would knock this off to get a ground, down, round
oh no lay here know i
all i say this nothing more than my point of view

call the raven
i did not need to hurt
look at the way she walks now no
so looking at your to go
oh and forsake all law
from abscence to the end
he upshot his eye could buy a good
before her mother robbed the tramp

won't you go by again

oh you lovely man
but you look so alone
in a lovely gravy
would you love to take me home
more love more than you would believe love
isn't there somewhere near
where i could pour the fear into
your sweet young thing
gots to fall again

pour then tossed away
oh her innocense betrayed and is strayed
bought then tossed away
oh this innocent lady

oh no oh love
cards were dealt when she's in love, love
hold her close to what she's got
no reason what's to go round, around, around
oh the love here
the one you hold
you had to go pull it
you had to go pull it
you had to go lay here
but all in all it's
nothing more than my point of view

oh man she got some gravy
what ya got to have
lie down great appeal
would teach my babe again
let it fall down past baby
off the back a kiss
she's locked up and spills tight this
and i can't get it stuck

bought then tossed away
oh she's the one that got her happiness
no crime is the tramp
her innocense betrayed

oh oh lady
mother said get around
oh her God he speak how could he be
will throw myself to the ground, the ground, the ground
oh oh darling is of you nightly
love you night
my love
oh lovely day outside
is to sit here
nothing more than my point of view
Raven
main lyrics
"What you got? what you got in your hand?" father said to son
"I got the whole world here, Daddy, 'tween my fingers and my thumb
"will you take care of it, please? it's the only one"
"well, it'd take me a lifetime, old man, to undo what you done"
undo what you done

"Oh, come on, now, boy, think, what would Jesus do?"
"he'd shake his head like a angry mother," spoke the boy
"and say I did what I could do"
"but you take care of it, please, like it's the only one you got
and it'd take ten lifetimes, boy, to undo what I've done"

Boy shrugged, walked away
the man stood and watched as he was leaving
boy just walked away
the man stood alone thinking

One hand is bleeding and the other hand holds the gun
while everything is open, oh, everything is shut down, down, down
begin to ending is really just a go round and round and round
and as I stand here, the ground beneath is nothing more than one point of view

What you got? what you got in your head? your secret's safe with me
well, I found the truth, friend, let me whisper in your ear
take good care of it, please, it's the only one there is
can I twist it, please? can I give it just a little twist?

Boy shrugged, walked away
the man stood and watched that boy misgiving
boy just walked away
the man stood there twisting

One hand is bleeding, oh, as the other hand holds the gun
everything is open, now, everything is shut down, down, down
no one is holding even if you, even if you're sure
you never know it all, the ground beneath is nothing more than my point of view

Boy shrugged, walked away
the man stood and watched the boy as leaving
boy just walked away
man stood there twisting

One hand is open and the other hand holds the gun
well, everything is open, oh, is everything coming down, down, down?
no one is holding, oh, even if you're, even if you know
you never know it all, but nothing more than, nothing more than my point of view

Boy shrugged, walked away
the man stood and watched as he was leaving
the man just stood there twisting
