[Verse 1]
I called to Madonna to give me a line
She said, "Boy what have you done"
You've been passing your time with a holy man
Talking of the Moon and Sun
I can't tell the difference between the fool and wise
Show me a river to follow away from all these lies
I called to the captain to put me ashore
For it looked like no man's land
Is this the way to follow—I cried as I shook his hand
He told me he had no answer, he didn't really hold the key
I am a simple man—was all he said to me?
[Chorus]
I've been on my own so long—won't you lend me your hand
I've been out in the cold too long—won't you understand
[Verse]
I heard my mother crying
She was calling out my name
I whisper in the dark night saying who's to blame
The hour glass keeps turning
With not enough sand to see
I am a Holy Man—so don't you bother me
I called to Madonna to give me a line
She said, "Boy what have you done"
You've been passing your time with a holy man
Talking of the Moon and Sun
I can't tell the difference between the fool and wise
Show me a river to follow away from all these lies
I called to the captain to put me ashore
For it looked like no man's land
Is this the way to follow—I cried as I shook his hand
He told me he had no answer, he didn't really hold the key
I am a simple man—was all he said to me?
[Chorus]
I've been on my own so long—won't you lend me your hand
I've been out in the cold too long—won't you understand
[Verse]
I heard my mother crying
She was calling out my name
I whisper in the dark night saying who's to blame
The hour glass keeps turning
With not enough sand to see
I am a Holy Man—so don't you bother me
