Default whats important

Winde it down now youv'e had your fun
everybody has the picture now there on the run
you see no one here no more they have all got up and left
they heard and believed you everyone is in your debt.

You are out spoken you decieve no one
we are all indebted to you for what you have said and done
You have a way with words you can reach out
your words travel like fire without having to shout.

Blessed are we who are here today
having heard what you had to say
It won't be forgotten this i know is truth
you have planted a seed you have done what you needed to do.

Now if you would be so kind i need my rest
please see your own way out, you have all my best
who you are il leave it to one of lifes mysteries
the stranger turned around and said i will see you in ten more years.
Well il see you again my friend if thats who you really are
a strange travelling salesman without a car.

Anyone who enters your life and saves you money and more
no matter what his back ground he will always be welcomed at my door.
He promised a way out solutions giving great advice
he left personal belongings a set of old dice.
Maybe thats his calling card, paid in full on collection
may you all be blessed like us and he's travelling in your direction.

No matter what religion or what state your in
i know everyone dreams about luck and ways to win
Its all at your finger tips just sign on the dotted line
your be drinking champagne no more sparkling wine.

Who wants to see the other side anyway
sing and praise someone who never lets you play
Keeps you poor saying your better off that way
living every tomorrow like your yesterdays.

I have lived at the bottom and have endured years of abuse
i started to believe what people said i was no use
I prayed to the lord above felt he gave me a little hope
but it wasn't long after i had my neck tied by a rope.
If you can't live a little what is the point
theres only so much booze you can swallow and weed filled joints.
No matter what your situation all is not lost
may lady luck run with you at no cost.

Born into this world and taught so many wrongs
when will you figure it out hope it doesn't take to long
if you know a way out without giving up your life
please share your wisdom before we are all lost in the night.
