I was born in a landslide

In the jungle land

I can play a piano

With a funeral hand



Ooh salt in the wound, making me blue

Ooh salt in the wound, play me a tune



Worked on a railroad

Slept on a cot

If you got what it takes

They'll take what you got



Ooh salt in the wound, making me blue

Ooh salt in the wound, play me a tune



Sha-la-la-la-la-la 

Sha-la-la-la-la-la

Sha-la-la-la-la-la

Sha-la-la-la-la-la...



Out on the North Sea

Where the waters are wild

You wept like a mad dog

Like a Ozone child



Ooh salt in the wound, making me blue

Ooh salt in the wound, play me a tune

Play me a tune, play me a tune, play me a tune, play me a tune



Sha-la-la-la-la-la

Sha-la-la-la-la-la

Sha-la-la-la-la-la

Sha-la-la-la-la-la

Sha-la-la-la-la-la...
