Terry Callier - Lazarus Man lyrics
I met a young man on the skeleton coast He was out of his feet and pale as a ghost I asked him his name - he said Lazarus, man Iīve comne to your country from a far away land I canīt quite remember the last time I was on shore Coulda been twelve years - it coulda been more But Iīve seen tribulation and itstaggered my mind And I just donīt remember whatI come her to find Refrain: Itīs wind on the ocean, rain on the land Three drops of water and one grain of sand Iīll tell you the stroy as quick as I can Iīve got nothing by time , Iīm Lazarus Man He saide "I woke one morninīand felt a little bit strange By midafternoon there was fever and pain And later that night with a few friends at my side I went of to sleep and then I must have died 'Cause I was stumblinīand rising so I couldnīt quite tell Had one foot in glory and one foot in hell On one side the gardenand on one sidethe flame And I thought I heard somebody call out my name Yeah, somebody was saying "Lazarus arise!" So I sat up and opened my eyes You know I wanted to dance but I didnīt have room I threw off the sheets and stepped out of the tomb" Refrain: Now Iīve been from nazareth to high barbary And I realize thereīs no rest for me Ißve been out on the desert Ißve been out on the deep But since he bid me to rise I ainīt been to sleep Refrain: |
