The City - Paradise Alley lyrics

The salesman came this morning Salvation door to door He offered me the property Oh who could ask for more? Show me around the pastures of plenty Deliver me from the rivers I've known I'm about to be drowned and my cup is so empty Just let me know when my time is come The mail was late arriving The bills were all for me It's not that I mind owing up It's just the C.O.D. Take me on down the pastures of plenty Deliver me from the rivers I've known I'm about to be drowned and my cup is so empty Just let me know when my time is come The sun is setting slowly Descending to the west I'm prepared if the end is near But which descent is best? Oh which descent is best? Show me around the pastures of plenty Deliver me from the rivers I've known I'm about to be drowned and my cup is so empty Just let me know when my time is come Show me around the pastures of plenty Deliver me from the rivers I've known I'm about to be drowned and my cup is so empty Just let me know when my time is come
