Oh Lord I never felt so low
Now the skirts hang so heavy around your head
From your father's hand
He came like a hero from the factory floor
Reaching out to make you pay
With the sun and moon as gifts
That always seemed like a fist
Oh Lord where did the feeling go
And the price was far too long
Oh Lord where did the feeling go
Because you played chance with a lifetime's romance
That you never knew you were young
Were the two he left you with
As he carried you away
But the only son you ever saw
Oh Lord I never felt so low
