Boy walks south down on the broken track Father said my son come on back So much trouble I must leave behind You can still do well, let me remind Hold, hold on I've seen my eyes when they're clouded in dark You call to your god like an old skylark This will show us that the devil preys I am counting down all of my days Hold, hold on I hold on now, I hold on now Hold, hold on Hold, hold on Come on back, my son, come on back my son Hold, hold on Before skies are red, and my day is done
