 And I hear in my head what you say in your sleep
 And I freeze in the moment like the rest who don’t try
 What good am I?

 She dropped a coin into the cup of a blind man at the gate
 And forgot about a simple twist of fate

 Broken hands on broken ploughs
 Broken treaties, broken vows
 Broken pipes, broken tools
 People bending broken rules
 Hound dog howling, bullfrog croaking

 I see your lover-man comin’—comin’ ’cross the barren field
