[00:03.31]I know what it means to get knocked down drunk
[00:05.540]I was lying in a bush by the coal
[00:08.280]Where the river runs deep
[00:09.739]And the demons don't sleep
[00:10.899]And the water's obscured by the smoke
[00:13.729]Well I drug myself to the river's edge
[00:16.319]And I drank like a dog on the sand
[00:19.59]It burned my tongue
[00:20.339]My whole head gets spun
[00:21.919]And I stood on the stone
[00:23.159]And spoke to the wind and the rain
[00:29.939]Said I know what it means to get left for dead
[00:32.659]When the saints rise up at the sound
[00:35.429]When the spirits don't move in
[00:36.969]Their chains and the shoes
[00:38.118]And the crack of the guns all around
[00:41.118]I know how it is to get all dressed up
[00:43.838]Where nobody would know where to go
[00:46.358]With a fifth in your vest
[00:47.698]And some pills on your tongue
[00:49.118]And a gun looking out across
[00:50.728]The valley of the shadow below oh
[01:13.691]Well I preached to the bums
[01:14.981]And I preached to the birds
[01:16.331]Til the crowd had started to form
[01:19.151]My disciples that came
[01:20.411]Through the wind and the rain
[01:21.761]And the rags in their jackets all torn
[01:24.601]Well I prophesized of the things to come
[01:27.130]And I jumped like a bug on a wall
[01:29.990]Til my head it was through
[01:31.290]With the river's strange brew
[01:32.590]And I sunk to my knees in the breeze
[01:34.760]And I started to pray
[01:36.680]I said hey
[01:38.80]You know I ain't got a dang thing to say
[01:40.980]With a head full of booze and nothing to loose
[01:43.499]For a creature was made out of clay hey
[01:57.213]Said I know what it means to get left for dead
[01:59.982]When the saints rise up at the sound
[02:02.702]When the spirits don't move in
[02:04.262]Their chains and the shoes
[02:05.372]And the crack of the guns all around
[02:08.232]I know how it is to get all dressed up
[02:11.181]Where nobody would know where to go
[02:13.600]With a fifth in your vest
[02:14.940]And some pills on your tongue
[02:16.380]And a gun looking out across
[02:17.990]The valley of the shadow below oh
