	作词 : Cave
	I went out walking the other day
	The wind hung wet around my neck
	My head it rung with screams and groans
	From the night i spent amongst her bones
	I passed beside the mission house
	Where that mad old buzzard, the reverend,
	Shrieked and flapped about life after your dead
	Well, i thought about my friend, michel
	How they rolled him in linoleum
	And shot him in the neck
	A bloody halo, like a think-bubble
	Circling his head
	And i bellowed at the firmament
	Looks like the rains are hear to stay
	And the rain pissed down upon me
	And washed me all away
	Saying
	Papa won't leave you, henry
	Papa won't leave you, boy
	Papa won't leave you, henry
	Papa won't leave you, boy
	Well, the road is long
	And the road is hard
	And many fall by the side
	But papa won't leave you, henry
	So there ain't no need to cry
	And i went on down the road
	He went on down the road
	And i went on down the road
	He went on down the road
	Well, the moon it looked exhausted
	Like something you should pity
	Spent an age-spotted
	Above the sizzling wires of the city
	Well, it reminded me of her face
	Her bleached and hungry eyes
	Her hair was like a curtain
	Falling open with the laughter
	And closing with the lies
	But the ghost of her still lingers on
	Though she's passed through me
	And is gone
	The slum dogs, they are barking
	And the rain children on the streets
	And the tears that we will weep today
	Will all be washed away
	By the tears that we will weep again tomorrow
	Papa won't leave you, henry
	Papa won't leave you, boy
	Papa won't leave you, henry
	Papa won't leave you, boy
	For the road is long
	And the road is hard
	And many fall by the side
	But papa won't leave you, henry
	So there ain't no need to cry
	And i went on down the road
	He went on down the road
	And i went on down the road
	He went on down the road
	And i came upon a little house
	A little house upon a hill
	And i entered through, the curtain hissed
	Into the house with its blood-red bowels
	Where wet-lipped women with greasy fists
	Crawled the ceilings and the walls
	They filled me full of drink
	And led me round the rooms
	Naked and cold and grinning
	Until everything went black
	And i came down spinning
	I awoke so drunk and full of rage
	That i could hardly speak
	A fag in a whale-bone corset
	Draping his dick across my cheek
	And its into the shame
	And its into a guilt
	And its into the fucking fray
	And the walls ran red around me
	A warm arterial spray
	Saying
	Papa won't leave you, henry
	Papa won't leave you, boy
	Papa won't leave you, henry
	Papa won't leave you, boy
	Well, the night is dark
	And the night is deep
	And its jaws are open wide
	But papa won't leave you, henry
	So there ain't no need to cry
	And i went on down the road
	He went on down the road
	And i went on down the road
	He went on down the road
	It's the rainy season where i'm living
	Death comes leaping out of every doorway
	Wasting you for money, for your clothes
	And for your nothing
	Entire towns being washed away
	Favelas exploding on inflammable spillways
	Lynch-mobs, death squads, babies being born without brains
	The mad heat and the relentless rains
	And if you stick your arm into that hole
	It comes out sheared off to the bone
	And with her kisses bubbling on my lips
	I swiped the rain and nearly missed
	And i went on down the road
	He went on down the road
	Singing
	Papa won't leave you, henry
	Papa won't leave you, boy
	Papa won't leave you, henry
	Papa won't leave you, boy
	Well, the road is long
	And the road is hard
	And many fall by the side
	But papa won't leave you, henry
	So there ain't no need to cry
	And i went on down the road
	He went on down the road
	And i went on down the road
	He went on down the road
	Bent beneath my heavy load
	Under his heavy load
	Yeah, i went on down the road
	Yeah, he went on down the road
	Woah, woah
	Woah, woah
	Woah, woah
	Woah, woah
	And i went on down that road
