lyrics

Lord, I’ve been a travelling man
On the road to be just free
I’ve been all around those places where
you’ll never intend to be
From the highest heights to the lowest depths
Lord knows the state I’m in
He knows everything has to come to end
as the ship comes sailin’ in

Lord, I’ve been a searching man
been curious naive
Like a child exploring love and theft
but never lost belief
Now I realize my childhood’s gone
Lord knows the state I’m in
And he knows all good things come to end
as the ship comes sailin’ in

Lord, I’ve been a sinnin’ man
most of all I harmed myself
No consciousness, no sympathy
could give me company to hell
And I gaze upon the things I’ve missed
Lord knows the state I’m in
All the good things, bad things come to end
as the ship comes sailin’ in
