Watch Over Me
"Oh how I want, oh how I plea."
To that Big Guy in the clouds,
Yes, Someone to watch over me
Should I ever enlightened be
still to spirits and saints pray
But need someone to watch over me
Images of gods as mother or daddy
or pictures of anglicized Jesus
Oh how I want, oh how I plea
Hope my god holds me so easily
As into heaven I want to go
Someone, Oh yes to watch over me
Wondering at all the glory I see
Is this really all there is
Oh how I plea, and how I plea
After the millionth or so glory
Sadly wondering at this story,
Oh my god how must I plea
For someone to watch over me!
