Lyrics

ride the blue wind high and free
she'll lead you down to misery
leave you low come time to go
alone and low as low can be

if I had a nickle I'd find a game
if I won a dollar I'd make it rain
if it rained an ocean I'd drink it dry
and lay me down dissatisfied

tell my sister I said so long
tell my mother I did no wrong
tell my brother to watch his own
tell my friends to mourn me none

legs to walk and thoughts to fly
eyes to laugh and lips to cry
a restless tongue to classify
all born to grow and grown to die

chained across the face of time
feeling full of foolish rhyme
there aint no dark 'til something shines
I'm bound to leave this dark behind

ride the blue wind high and free
she'll lead you down to misery
leave you low come time to go
alone and low as low can be
