| Man you should have seen me way back then | |
| I could tell a tale I could make it spin | |
| I could tell you black was white | |
| I could tell you day was night. | |
| Not only that I could tell you why | |
| Back then I could really tell a lie | |
| Well, I'd hire a kid to say he was lame | |
| Then I'd touch him and I make him walk again. | |
| Then I'd pull some magic trick | |
| I'd pretend to heal the sick | |
| I was takin' everything they had to give | |
| It wasn't all that bad a way to live. | |
| Well, I'm in this desert town and it's hot as hell | |
| But no one's buyin' what I got to sell | |
| I make my lame kid walk | |
| I make a dumb guy talk. | |
| I'm preachin' up a storm both night and day | |
| But everyone just turns and walks away | |
| Well, I can see that I'm only wasting time | |
| So I head across the road to drink some wine. | |
| This old man comes up to me he says I seen you on the street | |
| You're pretty good if I do say so myself | |
| But the guy comes through here last month | |
| He was somethin' else. | |
| Instead of callin' out for fire from above | |
| He just gets real quiet and talks about love | |
| And I'll tell you somethin' funny | |
| He didn't want nobody's money. | |
| Now I'm not exactly sure | |
| What this all means | |
| But it's the damnest thing | |
| I swear I've ever seen. | |
| Well, since that time every town is the same | |
| I can't make a dime I don't know why I came | |
| I decide I'll go and find him | |
| And find out who's behind him. | |
| He has everyone convinced that he's for real | |
| Well, I figure we can work us out a deal | |
| So he offers me a job and I say fine | |
| He says I'll get paid off on down the line. | |
| Well, I guess I'll string along | |
| Don't see how too much can go wrong | |
| As long as he pays my way I guess I'll follow | |
| We're headed for Jerusalem tomorrow... |
