One hapless day I took my place
On a reckless stage, holding up the rain
For the world to see an honest streak
where I gave it all away
I heard a fox say something
He said; "I'm not tame,
but I see you're looking, looking the other way"
You know you can't involve what you can't absolve
because you gave it all away
Will you hold it against me
When tomorrow comes?
While I'm headed home
Down this washboard road
I'll do my best to hold You up along the way
Hold on, Melody
Don't let go of me
Even if you can't arrest me for the day
Even if you can't arrest me for the day
