Lyrics
I’ll be faithful, faithful, carry me when life’s a drag
I’ll be grateful, grateful, for to be half in the bag
Well I’m not exactly the prayin type, but I do a lot of wishin and like a good dream at night
I got my hang-ups, excuses and tricks, and feelin alright can be a bit pernicious
I don’t mess around with angels anyway
They see right through my charade
Even the demons are all getting tired
Stokin' the flame of the same old desire
I’ll be faithful, faithful, carry me when life’s a drag
I’ll be grateful, grateful, for to be half in the bag
I’ll be faithful, faithful, to my restless mind
I will receive you, receive you, till I’m passin out on high
When I feel my life is adrift, I need some kinda compass
Yes I have been aimless, weary and broke, speeding directionless
Sometimes I hear the mermaids start to sing
And those rocky shores do seem inviting
Have I gone to pieces look in my eyes
Am I havin double vision or second sight
I’ll be faithful, faithful, carry me when life’s a drag
I’ll be grateful, grateful, for to be half in the bag
I’ll be faithful, faithful, to my restless mind
I will receive you, receive you, till I’m passin out on high
