Help Me Now

Jerry Jeff Walker Hear me now and use your love to listen well 'Cause I'm trying to tell you why I know It's time for me to go I drifted into the city to sing my songs of the gypsy life Be free, be kind, be strong I sang at walls and you came down to hold my head When the concrete beat me down And we rested high in a nest in the wall Forgetting it all So help me now, I do believe I am sinkin' down Yes, I'm back on the ground and I've found I'm bound to travel on You've only asked me to let you know whenever I had to go I'm trying to let you know I'll soon be gone I want it clear and my thoughts in here So you'll know you're not to blame It's those cats upstairs who handle my songs How they string me along Lovin' someone is to love someone Forever is the moment you're in A woman's a world a man can rest inside It's a love that's sown with dreams That the city keeps tearin' on down
