Good sister won't you let me in I'm in need of some warmth and shelter It's a hard luck story don't know where to begin I've been riding on life's helter-skelter Save me, holy mother please save me I got a heart of gold And for your love I'd go hungry and thirsty I need a saviour and you're the one I throw myself into the arms of mercy There's still hope for the runaway son My good father he say to me Better come back to your senses There's an empty bottle lying on the floor And it's untermined your defences Save me, holy mother please save me I got a heart of gold And for your love I'd go hungry and thirsty I need a saviour and you're the one I throw myself into the arms of mercy There's still hope for the runaway son Good brother show me how to get home I've been walking in the backyard of Satan I'm so stubborn that I'll never give in But now my hearts cold and aching Save me, holy mother please save me I got a heart of gold And for your love I'd go hungry and thirsty I need a saviour and you're the one I throw myself into the arms of mercy There's still hope for the runaway son
