I woke up one morning and I felt so weak Stumbled out of bed I dropped straight to my knees I tried to rise, but the pain was too grand It hurt me so bad, that I could not stand I could not stand I could not stand Ohh how it hurt me that I could not stand I crawled down the stairs and into the streets Thinking a doctor could surly put me back on my feet But she looked at me once, and said I'm sorry man Nothing in the books or signs will help you stand Help you stand Will help you stand Nothing in the books or signs will help you stand I went to the bank, thought its money I need A couple of bucks should put me back to speed But the banker said, I did not meet the demands Tell me, how will you carry gold if you can't even stand? You can't even stand You can't even stand How will you carry gold if you can't even stand? You can't even stand You can't even stand How will you carry gold if you can't even stand? I guess my beliefs; I dragged myself to the church They say, you'll be found, if you really search But I had to reach the priest, because I could not reach the lord The priest heard my prayer, but I'm still bound to the floor I'm bound to the floor I'm bound to the floor The priest heard my prayer, but I'm still bound to the floor I'm bound to the floor I'm bound to the floor The priest heard my prayer, but I'm still bound to the floor Now at this point it seemed, like I had one last hope And I don't mean death and I don't mean dope So I knocked on her door, and said I'm ready to go You're strong like an ox but you're blind like a mole So here's my suggestion, put your hand in my hand I'll be your eyes, if you help me stand Here's my suggestion, put your hand in my hand I'll be your eyes, if you help me stand Help me stand Will help me stand I'll be your eyes, if you help me stand Help me stand Will help me stand I'll be your eyes, if you help me stand
