Idol Billy Prodigal Blues Lyrics

Prodigal Blues Lyrics

Riding my life

 Like a run-a-way train

 Moving from

 One track to that

 Howling, crying,

 Screaming at the moon

 Only my voice came back

 Only the echo came back

 

 When I was a boy

 Daddy told me

 Grow tall

 Yes and Billy don't crawl

 Taught me how to ride

 Set me out on my own

 And I never came back

 

 And yes I'd do it again

 Oh wouldn't you

 Yeah I'd do it again

 A-huh oh yeah

 Do it again

 Baby

 Wouldn't you?

 

 Remember

 When I lied

 Just when you

 Needed me

 Now I sit

 Alone and cry

 Cos now I believe in mercy

 Remember when I lied

 Just when you needed me baby

 I believe in mercy

 

 Riding, walking

 Looking so cool

 Guess I crossed

 Over the borderline

 Treated like a dunce

 Who just can't read

 Did I fool me too?

 And yes I'd do it again

 Oh wouldn't you

 Yes I'd do it again

 Aha yeah I'd do it again

 Baby

 Wouldn't you

 

 Remember

 When I lied

 Just when you

 Needed me

 Now I sit

 Alone and cry

 Cos now I believe in mercy

 Remember when I lied

 Now that you

 Needed me

 Yes I believe in mercy

 

 I said "Come here"

 Look into my face

 And hear into my heart

 Hesitation

 Could re-arrange

 The other side

 To your love

 Take hold now baby

 And take

 What other

 Lovers have not

 Times is changing

 Will they re-arrange

 

 The other side to your love

 No-woah woah woah

 Yeah

 

 Wooooo

 

 (Come home

 Here he is impatient one

 Come home

 Come home

 Tell the story)

 

 Come home

 Here he is

 The impatient one

 Come home

 To claim a glory

 Prodigal son

 Come home

 Prodigal bum

 Come home

 Prodigal son

 Prodigal son

 Come home

 To claim a glory

 Prodigal son

 Come home

 Prodigal son

 COme home

 Prodigal bum

 Here he comes

 Yeah that prodigal son

 Ooooh

 He's the one

 To tell his story

 C'mon to tell his story

 Tell his story

 To claim his glory
