Coverdale/Hughes/Lord

Called to Madonna
To give me a line
She said boy what have you done
Passing your time with a holy man
Talking about the moon and sun
But I can t tell the difference
Between the fool and wise
Show me a river to follow
Away from all these lies

I ve been on my own so long
Won t you lend me your hand
I ve been picking up my bones too long
Won t you understand

Called to the captain
To put me ashore
For it looked like no man s land
Is this the way to follow
I cried as I shook his hand
He told me had no answer
He didn t really hold the key
I am a simple man
Was all he said to me

I ve been on my own so long
Won t you lend me a hand
I ve been out in the cold too long
Won t you understand
I ve been on the road so long
Won t you lend me your hand
I ve been out in the cold too long
Won t you understand

Heard my mother crying
She was calling out my name
Whisper in the dark night
Saying who s to blame
The hour glass keeps turning
With not enough sand to see
I am a holy man
So don t you bother me

I ve been on my own so long
Won t you lend me your hand
I ve been pickin up my bones too long
Won t you understand
I ve been on my own so long
Won t you lend me your hand
I ve been out in the cold too long
Won t you understand?
