I was walking down the street just the other last Wednesday A crooked man with a crooked hand grabbed me by mine, shook me up I'll take you away from this place Where they never will find you Don't listen to the man with the money in his hand He comes disguised in honour and rags He is your favourite nightmare To punish those, whoever stands in front of him, front of him
Follow me down to the river Follow me, I am your shelter
I was crawling round the bend just the other last Friday A misread man with a misled hand was in decline, cooked it up He took me away and they never will find me Don't listen to the man who drives you insane He comes with diamond studded rings To give you those things, you never needed him, needed him
Follow me down to the river Follow me, I am your shelter
Follow me down to the river Follow me, I am your shelter
Follow me down to the river Follow me, I am your shelter
