Hipsway Ask The Lord lyrics

I asked the Lord and He said, "No"
I say, "Why no?"

I hear you're happy but it does not show
Where wild things are, I dare not go
I say, "Why Lord?" I say, "Why?"

Gimme strength, gimme patience
Gimme will no survive
Where the wild things are, I dare not go
At first they make you happy this I know
But then they make you feel so low

Black money pays for suffering
I don't need it


I may be happy but it does not show
Where wild things are, I dare not go
I say, "Why Lord?" I say, "Why?"

I seen the fire and I touched the flame
And given the chance I'd go right back again
Hot summer rain burn me on the wheel
Baptize me with fire

Black money pays for suffering
I don't need it

I say, "Why Lord?"
