Illuminate the human race That's what I used to say Till I was saved By a lil girl Who showed me her way She gave me fortune Nine golden threads Till d**h do us part I keep her with me As I do roam Locked inside my heart Salvation Mountain Was the place The setting sun came alive I left her portrait inside her mouth To bless the fortune inside The road seems endless No end in sight And I can hear her weep She needs my hands to wipe her eyes Hold her in her sleep You can run boy You can hide But don't you leave her side She needs a lover Yeah she needs a man Not just a thorn in her pride
