John Mellencamp Where The World Began
I'm tired of being grateful for a chance to take a dive I'm sick of everything I do just to keep myself alive When you cut away the skin that bears the brand Standin' in the darkness, Baby, there I am Standin' in the darkness Someone call my name out Standin' in the darkness Someone put the flame out Standin' in the darkness Baby, there I am Where the world began Saw the man in Jamaica, he had a shadow on his back I recalled the ring of fire, and he wore his suit of black When the legend and the ocean meet the sand Standin' in the darkness, Baby, there I am Standin' in the darkness Someone call my name out Standin' in the darkness Someone put the flame out Standin' in the darkness Baby, there I am Where the world began Everyone is so fabulous, hey, we all got our gun Old Snakey's not a sinner, no, he just shows us how it's done When you separate the wretched from the damned Standin' in the darkness, Baby, there I am Standin' in the darkness Someone call my name out Standin' in the darkness Someone put the flame out Standin' in the darkness Baby, there I am Where the world began
