Patience



I wasn't born a fisherman

and I wasn't born a schoolgirl

and I wasn't born a tree of leaves

and I wasn't born o lordy lord

cause I was a bold and tireless worker



and I wasn't born an indian

and I wasn't born arabian

and I wasn't born a man with a dream to just let it falter



and I wasn't born o! a welldigger

and I wasn't born o! a fleshy thing

and I wasn't born a thing to be scorned

a thing to be ignored



and I will align myself with nothing

and I will enjoin my heart with no-one's

cause I was untried

when I was applied the light of birth



and I wasn't born o! to tell the truth

and I wasn't born o! to sleep with ruth

we're miles apart

and I have no heart for weeks between coupling

well, i could bide my time with girls that live in town

with those who seem always to be hangeing around

but it would not seem right to pass the night

with one not my true love



and I will align myself with nothing

and I will enjoin my heart with no-one's

cause I was untried

when I was applied the light of birth
