Oh, my soul, sometimes we don't know what to do 

We work so hard being tough on our own 

But now it's me and you 

Let's give it up, sad bones 

'Cause we are following hard times 

But you don't have to stand up all alone 

Just put your hand in mine 



Chorus

Climb on a back that's strong 

Yeah, you can get what you want 

Climb on a back that's strong 



If you could save me a place in heaven 

With a clean well-lighted room 

I'd muscle up to Armageddon 

And wave to you darling, be home soon 

If you could show me the story of love 

I would write it again and again 

And then you could be the woman you need 

If you would just let me be the man that I am 



Oh, I don't know 

Sometimes we try too hard to see 

But we've got one down and one more to go 

That's when you say to me



Chorus
