He was a blind man
Said, Could you spare a dime man?
No it won't keep me fed
But I want to show you that I've changed
That I won't drink it down
That I won't drink it down, woah
No I won't drink it down, woah
'Cause I am the Light
And they say the Lord is the thief in the night
He's coming to take me away
And I am afraid
'Cause I've been drunk as hell for fifteen years
But the Spirit sounds so sweet to my poor ears
I won't let you down
No I won't let you down, no (x4)
But I just want to beg
No I didn't say a thing
Said, Could you spare a dime man?
No it won't keep me fed
But I want to show you that I've changed
That I won't drink it down
That I won't drink it down, woah
No I won't drink it down, woah
'Cause I am the Light
And they say the Lord is the thief in the night
He's coming to take me away
And I am afraid
'Cause I've been drunk as hell for fifteen years
But the Spirit sounds so sweet to my poor ears
I won't let you down
No I won't let you down, no (x4)
But I just want to beg
No I didn't say a thing
