Holy Man

[Verse 1] I called to Madonna To give me a line She said boy what have you done You've been passing your time with a holy man Talking about the moon and sun And I can't tell the difference Between the fool and wise Show me a river to follow Away from all these lies [Verse 2] I called to the captain To put me ashore For it looked like no man's land Is this the way to follow I cried as I shook his hand He told me had no answer He didn't really hold the key I am a simple man Was all he said to me [Hook] I've been on my own so long Won't you lend me a hand I've been out in the cold too long Won't you understand [Verse 3] I heard my mother crying She was calling out my name Whisper in the dark night Saying who's to blame The hour glass keeps turning With not enough sand to see I am a holy man So don't you bother me [Hook x 2] I've been on my own so long Won't you lend me a hand I've been out in the cold too long Won't you understand I've been on my own so long Won't you lend me a hand I've been out in the cold too long Won't you understand
