Lepers, Thieves And Whores

Lovely sons and daughters

This ole life can get you down

As the days shrink one inch shorter

Keep your eyes glued to the ground

Now tuck your wings behind you

Cuz the wind can be so strong

Grab your things and mind you

All the kids can be so wrong

Bring papers and please help me off the floor

And sing for lepers, thieves and whores

Hey there granddad don't be bitter

All your fortunes are scattered on the sand

For sure is one thing she's turned out better

Because she knows she's in good hands

Now tuck your wings behind you

Cuz the wind can be so strong

Grab your things and mind you

All the kids can be so wrong

Bring papers and please help me off the floor

And sing for lepers, thieves and whores
