|
I can't believe that it's so cold |
|
And there ain't been no snow. |
|
The sound of music it comes to me |
|
From every place |
|
I go. Sunday morning, there's no one in church |
|
But the clergy's chosen man |
|
And he is fine |
|
I won't worry about him |
|
Got the book in his hand. |
|
There's a bitter east wind and the fields are swaying |
|
The crows are round their nests. |
|
I wonder what he's in there saying |
|
To all those souls at rest. |
|
I see the path which led to the door |
|
And the clergy's chosen man |
|
Bushes and briars, you and |
|
I Where do we stand? |
|
I wonder if he knows |
|
I'm here Watching the briars grow. |
|
And all these people beneath my shoes, |
|
I wonder if they know. |
|
There was a time when every last one |
|
Knew a clergy's chosen man |
|
Where are they now? |
|
Thistles and thorns |
|
Among the sand. |
|
I can't believe that it's so cold |
|
And there ain't been no snow. |
|
The sound of music it comes to me |
|
From every place |
|
I go. Sunday morning, there's no one in church |
|
But the clergy's chosen man |
|
Bushes and briars, thistles and thorns |
|
Upon the land. |
