Fat man lookin' in a blade of steel
Thin man lookin' at his last
meal
Hollow man lookin' in a cottonfield
For dignity
Wise man lookin' in a
blade of grass
Young man lookin' in the shadows that pass
Poor man lookin' through painted
glass
For dignity
Somebody got murdered on New Year's Eve
Somebody said dignity
was the first to leave
I went into the city, went into the town
Went into the land of the
midnight sun
Searchin' high, searchin' low
Searchin' everywhere I know
Askin'
the cops wherever I go
Have you seen dignity?
Blind man breakin' out of a
trance
Puts both his hands in the pockets of chance
Hopin' to find one
circumstance
Of dignity
I went to the wedding of Mary-lou
She said Ã’I don't
want nobody see me talkin' to youÓ
Said she could get killed if she told me what she
knew
About dignity
I went down where the vultures feed
I would've got deeper,
but there wasn't any need
Heard the tongues of angels and the tongues of men
Wasn't any
difference to me
Chilly wind sharp as a razor blade
House on fire, debts
unpaid
Gonna stand at the window, gonna ask the maid
Have you seen
dignity?
Drinkin' man listens to the voice he hears
In a crowded room full of
covered up mirrors
Lookin' into the lost forgotten years
For dignity
Met Prince
Phillip at the home of the blues
Said he'd give me information if his name wasn't used
He
wanted money up front, said he was abused
By dignity
Footprints runnin' cross the
silver sand
Steps goin' down into tattoo land
I met the sons of darkness and the sons of
light
In the bordertowns of despair
Got no place to fade, got no coat
I'm on
the rollin' river in a jerkin' boat
Tryin' to read a note somebody wrote
About
dignity
Sick man lookin' for the doctor's cure
Lookin' at his hands for the lines
that were
And into every masterpiece of literature
for dignity
Englishman
stranded in the blackheart wind
Combin' his hair back, his future looks thin
Bites the
bullet and he looks within
For dignity
Someone showed me a picture and I just
laughed
Dignity never been photographed
I went into the red, went into the black
Into
the valley of dry bone dreams
So many roads, so much at stake
So many dead ends, I'm
at the edge of the lake
Sometimes I wonder what it's gonna take
