I'm down in the slums, nobody don't want me around
I'm down in the slums, nobody don't want me around
I feel like some garbage can, way out in some dumping ground

I feel like something lost, and can't never been found
I feel like something lost, and can't never been found
I feel like I'm in quicksand, and slowly sinkin' down

Lord please forgive me, for the wrong I've done
Lord please forgive me, for all the wrong I've done
Because I'm tired of living, down in the dirty lowdown slums

They say the darkest hour, is just a little while before day
They say the darkest hour, is just a little while before day
So you know I wish that the time people, would hurry and pass away

Well I'm goin' to leave a token, if I should pass away
I'm goin' to leave a token, if I should pass away
I am lucky to be livin', in this cruel old world today
