I keep my
love in a little brown bag
Far away from the thrill of the world
Come live with me upon the shore
And look for a simple girl
Tell me that you're waiting for
an all -consuming love
Let down my soul in misery
You know that we were screwed
You know that we were all shot down
from heaven above
Keep the way I've signed
as a welcome sign
It's not rightfully mine, but it'll do
Come sit with me on a battle train
That's strictly built for you
Tell me you went missing
in a drunken act of war
Let me roll down your uniform
You know that we push through
You know that we were all shot down from heaven and
low
Tell me you went miss
ing in a drunken act of war
Let me pull down your
U .F .R.
You know that we were all shot down from heaven
above
This old world lies helpless
on it s side
My eyes blinked like hangers
when you used to lie
On my cross I beg and cry a million
bows
Earth quakes and helpless on
the floor
Strange faces press against
my window
Cannons fire and all my
children run to you
Fires and flies all down my side,
all down to you
Turn that round, let it go
I keep my lovely little brown bag far
away from the smell of the world
Come live with me upon the
shore and look for a simple girl
Tell me that you're waiting
for an all -concealing love
You let down my soul in misery
You know that we pushed through
You know that we were all shot
down from heaven above
