Bonnie 'Prince' Billy - Afraid Ain't Me lyrics

Scorn me not though I deserve, I've done fighting in my time. Long live the people hear me shout, And tell my enemies I'm blind now. Cold and clear, cold and clear, [Gold and clean...?] Alone I may be, But afraid ain't me. Trust to me your little ones, Slow and sweet I teach. Woman man in blended garments Try to block my greatest moments. Cold and clear, cold and clear, Alone I may be, But afraid ain't me. Oh the little black one comes No one shouts out my name Oh the little white one comes Think love is a game? Treat me well when wandered to your door Bathe me please for I am dirty Wash me hard with scalding tears And with bath water drain my fears. Cold and clear, cold and clear, Alone I may be but Afraid ain't me. Cold and clear, cold and clear, Alone I may be but Afraid ain't me.
