Boy walks south down on the broken track

Father said my son come on back

So much trouble I must leave behind

You can still do well let me remind

Hold hold on

I've seen my eyes when they're clouded in dark

You call to your god like an old skylark

This will show us that the devil preys

I am counting down all of my days

Hold hold on

I hold on now I hold on now

Hold hold on

Hold hold on

Come on back my son come on back my son

Hold hold on

Before skies are red and my day is done
