The sea is pounding at my window
Wants to baptize my mind
There's a thousand politicians at my back door
Blinding me with their lies
Don't tell me your problems my friend
I've heard them time and time and time and time again
Get on your plastic words and fly
If you don't have the truth friend, then I don't have the time
The earth is trembling beneath me
And I don't know what's to come
The foreign soldier fires his weapon
And a tear runs down the lonely scar
Don't tell me your problems my friend
I've heard them time and time and time and time again
Get on your plastic words and fly
If you don't have a heart friend, then I don't have the time
I've traveled through the seasons so many times
The saddest sight that I could see
Was the youngest brother being hung
'Neath the weeping willow tree
I've sat 'neath that weeping willow tree
Trying to deside [sic] wrong from right
The ancient scriptures that lay beside me
Vanished with God into the night
The sea is pounding at my window
Should I let it in
There's a hungry tramp at my back door
Can I turn my eyes from him
Don't tell me your problems my friend
I've heard them time and time and time and time again
Get on your plastic words and fly
If you don't have any love friend, then I don't have the time
