Lyrics

I was born on the banks off a hot muddy river The child of one stupid steamy night Born to roam beneath the sun What do you think of me, I'm better left alone Yeah Said I met a Holyman who said that he knew the way And he'd like to show me so my life won't go astray Take my hand child, now little boy don't you be afraid I'll take your soul and walk on water Holyman, you don't understand The cuts on me they run much deeper Holyman, you righteous man I've been shown the way a thousand times Not one a keeper Older man he said I'll tell you boy You've planted rotten seeds And in a land of happiness They'll grow us evil trees Guided minds And eyes that will never see Holyman I'll tell you Just what it is that I believe Holyman, you don't understand The cuts on me they run much deeper Holyman, you righteous man I've been shown the way Not one a keeper No, I gotta run away Yeah, yeah, yeah Holyman, I said I tell you why you gotta Believe in what you see 'Cause it's you that corrupt us man and Deep throat philosophy I don't need your spells or the little Games you try to pull on me Come to think of it I don't need your religion So I gotta get away I wish you would understand Everybody prays Let me find my own Let me find my own way Holyman, you don't understand The cuts on me they run much deeper Holyman, you righteous man I've been shown the way Not one a keeper Not one a keeper Not one a keeper Not one a keeper
