I'm going down the river of sadness
I'm going down the river of pain
In the dark, under the wires
I hear them call my name
I gave you the key to the highway
And the key to my motel door
And I'm tired of leaving and leaving
I can't come back no more
Oh, my dark-eyed friend
I've recalled you again
Soft voices that speak nothing
Speak nothing to the end

"Oh, mother of Earth", the blind, they call
But, yet, stay behind the wall
Their sadness grows like weeds upon my thighs and knees
Oh, mother of Earth, the wind is hot
I tried my best, but I could not
And my eyes fade from me in this open country
I'm going down the river of sadness
I'm going down the river of pain
In the dark, under the wires
I hear them call my name
In the dark, under the wires
I hear them call my name
