Townes Van Zandt - Where I Lead Me (Official Audio)

"Where I Lead Me" from Townes Van Zandt's album Delta Momma Blues
Listen/Purchase: townesvanzandt...
Lyrics:
Where I lead me I will travel
Where I need me I will call me
I'm no fool, I'll be ready
God knows I will be
And in the meantime make a little money
And buy a little mercy
Met this morning, now she loves me
Say's she loves me
It must be easy, look around you
All around you
But you see the motion, you're not movin'
You don't know how to hold on
Just keep it loose don't get excited,
You know it’s gonna pass before long
Now one is goin' one is stayin'
One is silent one is saying'
Here's your coat, take care of yourself
I’m sorry you're leavin'
A little sad you're all I had
Will you be returnin'
The boys upstairs are gettin' hungry
You can shout in the wind about how it will be
Or you can clench your fist, shake your head
And head to the country
I got no doubt about it my friend
That's where they'll find me
That's where they're gonna find me
Ask the boys down in the gutter
Now they won't lie cause you don't matter
The street's just fine if you're good and blind
But it ain't where you belong
Roll down your sleeves, pick up your money
And carry yourself home
Roll down your sleeves, pick up your money
And carry yourself home

I listened to your music in the movie called Counterpart. I liked it very much. I found it on RUclips. It's nice. I'm from Ethiopia. Thank you.

I love the transcripts -
2:33 “Pick up the money carry a cellphone”
I’d have to say that’s quite prophetic considering that the first mobile phone didn’t come out till 1973, and this song was released in 1970.
Thankfully all of the transcripts are completely accurate!😂

"Make a little money, buy a little mercy." This was a 27 year old genius.
