I had no money, I had no clothes I had no shelter from the bitter cold When you're too weak to walk, He'll carry you through I'm living proof When you're down to your last dime You ain't got no hope or peace of mind Just say a prayer, He'll listen to you I'm living proof I'm living proof that bares a way I'm living proof, kneel down and pray I seen His glory, I know the truth I'm living proof, I'm living, I'm living proof You know I'm not tough, can't do my own Say you're going down all alone Well, I'm still here, and gone Living proof Life ain't easy, it's a long, hard test You're gonna make mistakes, just do your best, you make it through Hell, I'm living proof I'm living, I'm living, I'm living proof I'm living proof that bares a way I'm living proof, kneel down and pray I seen His glory, I know it's true I'm living proof I'm living, I'm living, I'm living proof There's a lot the Lord can do Hey, look at me, I'm living proof I'm living proof Yeah, I'm living proof Yeah, I'm living proof Yeah, I'm living proof I'm living proof I'm living proof I'm living proof

The night fell with bicycle bells, the dark had wooden teeth Oh we broke on up to hill country, the air was thin and sweet Lord, the air was thin and sweet She held onto my coat that night, like a kid lost in her sleeves Oh we warmed the ground, we hushed our sound We slept on walking feet Lord, we slept on walking feet Oh Darlin, pardon me Can you help me remember When we were all flying free We were dust from our bodies And we were flicker and flame, yeah we burned till the morning Darlin, pardon me Off in the night, you can hear 'em bright, The Sirens of the Sea Oh and city birds and alley girls, they all just sing for free Oh they all just sing for free Oh Darlin, pardon me But do I look familiar When we were just larkspur and leaves We were strung through the tether And we were all silver and stone We were the lust of the miners Darlin, pardon me That sky glowed all calico like phosphor in the sea To the ground we fall, she owns us all Kings and boys and beast Kings and boys and beast Oh Darlin, pardon me But do I look familiar When we were just flying free And we burned from a freight train And we were some flicker of truth in the smile of a salesman And we were all buried jewels 'neath the grass in the suburbs And we were all living proof Oh Darlin, pardon me
