I've become a glad man singing a song
About a soldier on a good and a fallen angel
Naked as a fish and a high
About a sad man climbed up a willow bough
And the cops are on the fence around a dog in the manger
And the mouth of the river is wide
Wide...
I've become a glad man singing a song
By the bushes, by the gas pump
Gon' the flower and a constant star collides
About a sad man singing they forgotten how
And the baby quick sucking when the milk went sour
And the mouth of the river is wide
Wide...
About a sad man lost in the hammock sway
When the bridal gown came on and spit out the window
And the cops say the dog won't b***
And the sad man's saying they forgot him how
And the blood running black in the valley shadows
And the river running all the while
I've become a glad man singing a song
About a lover rolled over, said you must be tired
And the truth coming towards the light
About a sad man knocking on a chapel door
And a burned out boat called "Tried by Fire"
And the mouth of the river is wide
Wide...
About a soldier on a good and a fallen angel
Naked as a fish and a high
About a sad man climbed up a willow bough
And the cops are on the fence around a dog in the manger
And the mouth of the river is wide
Wide...
I've become a glad man singing a song
By the bushes, by the gas pump
Gon' the flower and a constant star collides
About a sad man singing they forgotten how
And the baby quick sucking when the milk went sour
And the mouth of the river is wide
Wide...
About a sad man lost in the hammock sway
When the bridal gown came on and spit out the window
And the cops say the dog won't b***
And the sad man's saying they forgot him how
And the blood running black in the valley shadows
And the river running all the while
I've become a glad man singing a song
About a lover rolled over, said you must be tired
And the truth coming towards the light
About a sad man knocking on a chapel door
And a burned out boat called "Tried by Fire"
And the mouth of the river is wide
Wide...
