Prodigal Blues

Lyrics for Prodigal Blues

Riding my life Like a run-a-way train Moving from One track to that Howling, crying, Screaming at the moon Only my voice came back Only the echo came back When I was a boy Daddy told me Grow tall Yes and Billy don't crawl Taught me how to ride Set me out on my own And I never came back And yes I'd do it again Oh wouldn't you Yeah I'd do it again A-huh oh yeah Do it again Baby Wouldn't you? Remember When I lied Just when you Needed me Now I sit Alone and cry 'Cause now I believe in mercy Remember when I lied Just when you needed me baby I believe in mercy Riding, walking Looking so cool Guess I crossed Over the borderline Treated like a dunce Who just can't read Did I fool me too? And yes I'd do it again Oh wouldn't you Yes I'd do it again Aha yeah I'd do it again Baby Wouldn't you Remember When I lied Just when you Needed me Now I sit Alone and cry 'Cause now I believe in mercy Remember when I lied Now that you Needed me Yes I believe in mercy I said "Come here" Look into my face And hear into my heart Hesitation Could re-arrange The other side To your love Take hold now baby And take What other Lovers have not Times is changing Will they re-arrange The other side to your love No-woah woah woah Yeah Wooooo (Come home Here he is impatient one Come home Come home Tell the story) Come home Here he is The impatient one Come home To claim a glory Prodigal son Come home Prodigal bum Come home Prodigal son Prodigal son Come home To claim a glory Prodigal son Come home Prodigal son COme home Prodigal bum Here he comes Yeah that prodigal son Ooooh He's the one To tell his story C'mon to tell his story Tell his story To claim his glory
