There is a part of the Lord inside of me
And he's being cheated constantly
Dirt flowing in water running out
There is always something to talk about
Or around water flowing down
O my Lord, are you in need of a partner to lean on?
In the morning dawn
And when the c*ck crows twice
It's long enough to wake some part of the world
In the mid-century when the West was bleeding constantly
And there in the East, all flooded with light
A man in the water, pulling out songs
Singing just out of eyesight
Or in town, water drying out
O my friend, are you in need of a shoulder to sleep on?
Make our message know that we will not be spit on
When we're finally moving on
When the c*ck crows twice on the front lawn
May the message become bronze
Let the people have some words to rest their weary eyes on
In the morning dawn
When the c*ck crows twice
It's long enough to wake some part of the world
That's gilded and unsure
And that's strong but losing touch
There is a dog in the captain's belly barking to us
