Don't Ask Me Why Lyrics

I choose to stay far away from the ones that think money is money to share
Don't ask me why and I'll tell you no lies

Sonny don't come here no more
He don't drink from this well
He's done with the world
And done with the girl and I don't ask him why and he tells me no lies
Those of us who are lost and low, I know how you feel
I know it's not right but it's real, but it's real

I don't ask for love and I don't beg for money
I'm just asking for grace and forgiveness now honey
Don't ask me why, I'll tell you no lies
Been looking for answers in unsavory places on the highest of mountains
And the lowest of bases and I still don't know why, I still don't know why

Those of us who are lost and low, we know how you feel
We know it's not right but it's real, but it's real

I took the wind from the sea
I took the blood from an arrow
I took the wisdom of spring
And I was thrown and blown and tossed and turned
Until time found its hand and called it an end
Me and time, we go way back when
I was a child and I always knew it
I knew my name, I knew my road and I stayed away from heavy loads
And still I am low, oh lord, am I low?

Those of us who are lost and low, I know how you feel
I know it's not right but it's real, ut it's real
