I walk with you through the valley Walk with me one step more. I saved you once, my daddy, Don't make living into a dark chore. Believe in my songs and future Believe in my fortune and gift. Don't throw me away with the soothers Don't hate me or cause a rift. I want to see my future I want the good things of this world. I have always been a straight shooter And you an ever shining pearl. I don't want great fame Or money or vice. I don't want my name To be flashing with lights. But, God gave me a talent That you said not to burry. So, don't think I'm a rapscallion For not wanting to worry About my work which I have made. This work I am called to, see; Come what will or what may.
