lyrics

Well I left I poor mother before I was born
500 years ago.
I left my mother standin' alone
Lord, like I'd done before

I've walked down the isles of lonesome religions
400 years ago.
I've stepped into churches but made ma decisions
I'm on this road all alone
--
I've trudded through mud, I've stumbled through sand
all with ma own two feet
But the one I got left said
'I'm takin' a stand,
while you always takin' a seat'

Bring me back to the days of my own,
when I could think straight, and talk to you still
Well bring me back here resting ma bones
when hope's just an old friend who's dead
when hope's just an old friend who's dead

--
He left me , ma horse did, to walk down the plank
alone with ma then two feet
He left me on all fours when the island sank
and all I could do was sleep.

So I awoke, and I was old, n' you left me to die
300 days ago.
I'm broke, still livin' and asking him 'why?',
she never answered and he turned his head
--
Well bring me back to the days of my own
when I could think straight and talk to you still
Well bring me back here resting ma bones
when hope"s just an old friend who's dead
when hope's just an old friend who's dead
