歌词
[Verse 1]
There's a man
Out on a mountain
And he's searching
And he's counting
[Verse 2]
All the lambs he has saved and are lost
The devotion outweighs the cost
I thought I heard him say
No matter what time, night or day
He can hear them calling from miles away
[Verse 3]
And there's a man out on the ocean
See him rolling with each motion
Ah, he knows how his craft will behave
Or he is lord of the shoals and the waves
[Verse 4]
I saw him drinking at the bar
Like a fish that'd sunk too far
He staggered off cursing the moon and the stars
[Verse 5]
Good night
Sleep tight
[Verse 6]
And there's a man
Out on the steep stairs
And he's climbing
Where no one dares
[Verse 7]
Ah, he faces the smoke and the flame
If he falters, he faces the blame
Once I saw his smoke-smeared face
Tracks of tears had laid their trace
There's not enough money to take that place
[Verse 8]
Good night
Sleep tight
[Verse 9]
Once I saw his smoke-smeared face
The tracks of tears had laid a trace
There's not enough money to take that place
