Fighting The Good Fight
. . .


Take me out, take me home, take me anywhere
I walked a hundred miles so I could give a dog a bone.

I'm alright, I don't mind.
I'm just running into something bigger than the something that I left behind.
Oh my darling (x3), Clementine.
Turn the water (x3) into holy water.

You are restless, very young.
Got a message from your mother,
said to tell you she'll be coming round the mountain when she comes,
She will be coming round the mountain when she comes.
Oh my darling (x3), Clementine.
Turn the water (x3) into holy water.
Oh my darling (x3), Clementine.
Turn the water (x3) into a little bit more time.

Take me out, take me home, take me anywhere.
I walked a hundred miles so I could hear them play your song on the radio.

I'm not the saviour of modern religion
Not the messiah, not a magician, I don't know why
But I was not meant for this tropical city
I drive by your house and hope you cannot see me
And I don't know why I keep coming back
Cause it's you, feels like a heart attack and

Honestly, you know how to pull the devil out of me
You act like it's so easy
You're a one man guy
A one man show
A one man band on the radio

And I'm on that stage where the moon could catch fire
We're down to the wire, we're down to the wire
We're down to the war, we're down to the war
And I've been listening to such terrible thoughts by such terrible people
And I never know who is good and who is evil
Just take what you want, what you want is what I want to give you

And honestly, you know how to pull the devil out of me
You act like it's so easy
You're a one man guy
A one man show
A one man band on the radio

Even though we're just holding on to what you used to know
I'm just keeping on with all my keeping on,
I'm just practising the way it gets so strong

And honestly, you know how to pull the devil out of me
You act like it's so easy
You're a one man guy
A one man show
A one man band on the radio

Even though we're just holding on to what you used to know
I'm just keeping on with all my keeping on
I'm just practising the way it gets so strong

. . .


Why do I see stars at night?
Everyone else sees the light
And how did I come this far?
I'm sure that I can't fly

Why did you say that to me?
80 miles out on the sea
And I am built with parts of you and, you are built with parts of me

I think it's strange that the weather doesn't change
When you are beside me
When you are beside of me
I make my plans but they don't stay the same
You are beside me when
You are beside me

Oh Sailor, Oh sailor

Take the wheel
Oh sailor don't measure how I feel

Dance around the fire
Dance around the flame
We settle on the wire
We settle on my name

Take me with you when you go, now that I know what I know, cross the waves, blow the windy tides

goes so slow
