I met a young man on the skeleton coast

He was out of his feet and pale as a ghost

I asked him his name - he said Lazarus, man

I've come to your country from a far away land

I can't quite remember the last time I was on shore

Coulda been twelve years - it coulda been more

But I've seen tribulation and it staggered my mind

And I just don't remember what I come her to find

It's wind on the ocean, rain on the land

Three drops of water and one grain of sand

I'll tell you the story as quick as I can

I've got nothing by time, I'm Lazarus Man

He said "I woke one mornin' and felt a little bit strange

By mid-afternoon there was fever and pain

And later that night with a few friends at my side

I went of to sleep and then I must have died

'Cause I was stumblin' and rising so I couldn't quite tell

Had one foot in glory and one foot in hell

On one side the garden and on one side the flame

And I thought I heard somebody call out my name

Yeah, somebody was saying "Hey, Lazarus arise!"

So I sat up and opened my eyes

You know I wanted to dance but I didn't have no room

I threw off the sheets and walked out of my tomb"

It's wind on the ocean, rain on the land

Three drops of water and one grain of sand

I'll tell you the story as quick as I can

I've got nothing but time I'm Lazarus, man

I've been from Nazareth to high Barbary

And I realise there's no rest for me

I've been out on the desert

I've been out on the deep

But since he had me rise

I ain't been to sleep

It's wind on the ocean, rain on the land

Three drops of water and one grain of sand

I'll tell you the story as quick as I can

I've got nothing but time, I'm a Lazarus Man
