Bitter Draught lyrics
why bother with a second coming
wouldn't nobody show no how
why bother bringin on springtime
just to fall
why love up on your woman
only to bring her down
why bother with the day's blue fullness
if all that's on your mind is the night
what's papa's little boy doing
lying like an old man
in a heap outside
the closed church door
newspaper and an empty bottle
and the light changing green to red
and the sky's just an eye
of black in a crack between the walls
why answer the telephone
just to apologize again
why wait for the train to get here
or the child to grow
why bother with a life of kindness
with nothing to show for nothing
to show for nothing at all
why bother with a second coming at all
