Down the rough road where the asphalt is split Stumbles a man down to his wits Brother, oh brother, what's left to regret? Known by the way that he carries his load
Early one morning in the warehouse of souls Digger was bent [incomprehensible] Digger, oh digger, what's left to reveal? Known by the way that he carries his load
I was a gambler and I was a king The world of sin was all my domain Now I am bent, broken and spent Known by the way that I carried my load
A priest came along and said forty words Up from the ground rose a great bird Raven, oh raven, why do you fly? Known by the way he carries his load Known by the way he carries his load
