Verse 1
I’m feeling dark, dirty and lonely
Out here on my own
Will someone join me on my journey?
But I’ve reaped what I’ve sown
I’m all alone on this road to nowhere
That’s just the way it’s been
It’s a long way from here to there
And these streets are mean
Chorus
Save me, save me from despair
Save me, this life just aint fair
Verse 2
I’ve travelled such a long distance
Crisscrossing this vast land
Looking for work needs persistence
It’s hard when you’re dealt this hand
My hope needs to be resurrected
My companion’s my trusty steed
But even he’s looking dejected
When you’ve got two mouths to feed
Chorus
Save me, save me from despair
Save me, this life just aint fair
Verse 3
Every now and then I get me some work
Get me a miserly crumb
It’s no good when they think you’re a jerk
It makes me feel so numb
I think I might get me arrested
Get me three square meals a day
But I think I’m too invested
In finding my own way
Chorus
Save me, save me from despair
Save me, this life just aint fair
