He was a blind man, said,
"Could you spare a dime, man?
No it won't keep me fed, but I want to show you that I've changed.
That I won't drink it down."

"I won't drink it down."

"Cause I am the light, and they say that the Lord is a theif in the night.
He's coming to take me away, and I am afraid."

"Cause I've been drunk as hell for fifteen years,
But the spirit sounds so sweet to my poor ears.
No, I won't let you down."

"I won't let you down."

But I just walked away. No, I didn't say a thing.
