Hiss Golden Messenger - Karens Blues Lyrics

You arrived alive in the spring
And for a reckless little while, I took you in
And it was well known you were born to lose
Born to be bad
Born to use me

And all that summer we played a game
Well, I knew that you could leave
And you said you'd stay

Well, autumn's blew came and wrecked the yard
You wretched little wind
You do blow hard

Lone, lone, lone goes the sparrow
My feet, feet, feet are on my road
And though I can't go back to where I'm from
For all that, life's not so terrible

Karen, where have you been?
For just a little while, on the street of Lexington
Long hair sitting in the sun
You were so young, so full of devastation

Lone, lone, lone goes the sparrow
My feet, feet, feet are on my road
Though I can't go back to where I'm from
After all that life's not so terrible

Oh, sweet, sweet, sweet is the sparrow
My feet, feet, feet are on my road
And though I can't go back to where I'm from
For all that, life's not so terrible
