Manchild - Lyrics by Creatures


Lyrics
they would seek high, they would seek lowcalling their manchild as the trouble would blowthere's always some body to watch over mei'm never alone i wish they'd leave me benever alone
I'm never alonei'm just a boy not long for this worldi'm called nelsito and i'm thirteen years oldfor nearly two decades this vendetta has ragedthere are no men i'm the last in the chainlast in the chaini'm manchild manmarimba sing high marimba sing lowmarimba sing high as the cemetery growsall have been wept for husbands brothers grandsonsgrandfathers nephews cousins uncles fathers and sonsi walk in boots too big for methe women do cry as they watch over mei work at the altar i try to be goodbut just like the others i'll soon travel in woodi try to be goodman child in wood
