A Man In Need (Live At The Paris Theatre, 22051982)
I packed my rags, went down the hill
Left my dependents a-lying still
Just as the dawn was rising up
I was making good speed
I left a letter lying on the bed
From a man in need, it read
You know its so hard, Its so hard to find
Well, well, well. Whos going to cure the heart of a man in need?
All of my friends dont comprehend me
Their kind of style it just offends me
I want to take em, I want to shake em
Till they pay me some heed
Oh, youve got to ride in one direction
Until you find the right connection
You know its so hard, so, so, so, so
Well, well. Whos going to cure the heart of a man in need?
Whos going to give you real happiness?
Whos going to give you contentedness?
Whos going to lead you? Whos going to feed you?
And cut you free?
Well Ive sailed every ship in the sea
But I travelled this world in misery
You know its so hard, so hard, so hard
Well, well. Whos going to cure the heart of a man in need?
Well whos going to shoe your feet?
Ah whos going to pay your rent?
And whos going to stand by you?
Well, well, well, well
Whos going to cure the heart of a man in need?
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Of a man in need.
