the thousandth man - leslie fish lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
one man in a thousand, solomon says
will stick more close than a brother
and it’s worthwhile seeking him half of your days
if you find him before the other

[refrain]
nine hundred and ninety*nine depend
on what the world sees in you
but the thousandth man will stand your friend
with the whole round world against you

[verse 2]
but if he finds you or if you find him
the rest of the world won’t matter
for the thousandth man will sink or swim
with you in any water

[refrain]
nine hundred and ninety*nine of ’em call
for silver and gold in their dealings
but the thousandth man is worth ’em all
because you can show him your feelings

[instrumental break]
[verse 3]
his wrong is your wrong, his right is your right
in season or out of season
stand up and back it in all men’s sight
with that for your only reason

[refrain]
nine hundred and ninety*nine can’t ‘bide
the shame or the mocking or laughter
but the thousandth man will stand by your side
to the foot of the gallows and after
