Lyrics
I been mopin’, I been hopin’ Travelin’ down this long and winding road On the way in I was prayin’ That I would not have to carry such a painful, heavy load But it turned out I been burned out From the first step I took along this trail I been sinnin’ from the beginnin’ Of this sad and lonesome tale Men of bravery, world of slavery Knowin’ just what freedom will require Truth is spoken, vows are broken It’s amazin’ what you’ll agree to if they set you on fire It’s been so bleak, and a long week That my nerves are getting’ mighty frail It’s repellin’, one more tellin’ Of this sad and lonesome tale Do the walkin’, do the talkin’ Let the greatest of your notions be the guide Goin’ longer, getting’ stronger Till you can help me move the mountain to get on the other side I get lazy, things get crazy So excuse me if I just do not exhale I’m too wired, and I’m so tired Of this sad and lonesome tale All the verses are curses And the characters just won’t come to life They been blinded and reminded That the fog is getting’ so thick you can’t cut it with a knife It’s straining and it’s draining Looks like there isn’t much to do but fail That’s the illusion and conclusion Of this sad and lonesome tale
