Mister please Won't you tell me I'm alright I'm so lonely I been thinking I could die I got me a woman She bled her soul All over me I think she's crazy What you gonna do with me Brother brother Can't you hear them mission bells Calling out All them sinners bound for hell Ain't no stranger Been down that road before So brother brother Won't you tell me I'm alright I'm alright Ah, ah, ah Ah, ah, ah Smoking mother nature into the dust Yeah that's all I see Praying to gods that are made out of rust And thinking what you might have been Now I suppose I could change my vows Yeah that's all I need Maybe some day you'll find me fishing For the lock that fits with my key Gonna change it baby that me Ah, ah, hey mister Never one to count
Take a look at my life What a work of art I see Got no love baby living off the tracks With the chains and the shackles on me Now I'm with you Gonna head on south Sliding down to Mexico way Maybe someday you'll find me sitting On a beach where the palm-ah trees sway And heaven's just a little kiss away Won't you help me mister please Now I suppose I could change my vows Yeah that's all I need Maybe someday you'll find me fishing For the lock that fits with my key Gonna change it baby that's me Won't you help me mister please Mister please Won't you tell me I'm alright I'm so lonely I been thinking I could die I got this woman She bled her soul all over me Now I think I'm crazy What you gonna do with me Mister please
