Patience Lyrics

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 pa*s 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
