Lyrics

Ride the blue wind high and free
She'll lead you down through misery
Leave you low come time to go
Alone and low as low can be
If I had a nickel, I'd find a game
If I won a dollar, I would make it rain
If it rained an ocean, I'd drink it dry
And lay me down dissatisfied
Legs to walk and thoughts to fly
Eyes to laugh, lips to cry
A restless tongue to classify
All born to grow and grown to die
Tell my baby I said so long
Tell my mother I did no wrong
Tell my brother to watch his own
Tell my friends to mourn me none
Chained upon the face of time
Feeling full of foolish rhyme
There ain't no dark till something shines
I'm bound to leave this dark behind
Ride the blue wind high and free
She'll lead you down through misery
Leave you low come time to go
Alone and low as low can be
