Wash
all
my sins
away.
I'm down
on my knees
to pray.
Here, you are, once again
and darling, oh I,
need a friend
And I, been alone
and you, came on in.
I'm holding you
in my arms
once again.
I hold out my hand
to you
Do you take it all in my blues
Heaven with you, it's true
and darling, oh I, love you.
When I,
been alone, and you came on in.
I'm holding you,
in my arms
once again.
My wrists, my ankles, they are all fettered.
The iron has entered into my blood.
I droop and I stumble,
I fall and I curse.
The good people stand in front of me
and at the head of the good people,
Slim Cessna--
he will hold me in his arms, once again.
And I been alone
and you,
came on in.
I'm holding you,
in my arms
once again.
