My, my old child
Skinny and blind
Valiant and shy
As the way of flies

And it’s running
It's more than I can take
Shine shine
Poor old kid


Washed, washed in the rain
I can't explain
I can't explain
How they fade and die

And it’s running
It's more than I can take
Shine shine

Now keep running
It's more than you can take
Shine, shine
Poor old kid
