And the trees outside they are a-moaning That I've got a woman who will save my soul And the trees outside they are a-moaning That I've got a woman who will save me Lord, I've been waiting for you by the side of the road And I've been unkind Oh lord, I've been waiting for you by the side of the road And I've been unkind. Oh lord.
