have a light

I dont suppose you have a light

for an old man down on his luck

I had a map and a plan of sorts

but now those things don’t mean that much

dreams came true alright

with dreams of their own, and guess what

although love did what it could

it never did quite enough

you don't get nothin' for your trouble

don't get nothin' for your time

except a mean disposition, worn out parts

sorrow and a dissatisfied mind

I don’t suppose you have a light

this darkness really sucks

I’ve been through quite a lot

but I’m really not that tough

---

I would not impose if there were
another way out of this dump

I use to have faith in all things good

but faith ran away with my stuff

you dont get nothin for your trouble

dont get nothin for your time

cept a mean disposition, worn out parts

sorrow and a dissatisfied mind
