Lyrics:

Mother, she told me, son
It's time to come home
Time moves so slow while you're gone
But I just lay in bed and watch the time grow
She said I know, I know

People are skipping town
The priestess is on the ground
Where has goodness gone?

I've been saving my money up
To buy a six-string
'Cause nobody sings
Like they're living or dying no more
Lately I lay in bed and watch the world turn
So soon shall it burn

People are skipping town
My father's fortunes drowned
Where has goodness gone?
