I was lost near a crooked river
Couldn't find or see the road
And I will do this forever
Someone help me with my load
There were times I felt like crying
Other times I'd scream and curse
At all times I felt the dying
And the weight is just the worst
Face is pale, palms are sweaty
Singing "Teach your children well"
But it offers me no rescue
I just might fall straight to hell
You can run from the devil
You can hide from your mind
But you can't run forever
Cross your heart and hope to die
I'm still lost near that crooked river
I won't find or see the road
And I will do this forever
No one help me with my load
