[Verse 1] My father he rides with your sheriffs And I know he would never mean harm But to see both sides of a quarrel Is to judge without hate or alarm [Chorus] Oh, oh, helpless and slow When you don't have anywhere to go [Verse 2] Now you take away homes from the homeless And you leave them to die in the cold Oh, the gypsy who begged for your favors He will laugh in your face when you're old [Chorus] Oh, oh, helpless and slow When you don't have anywhere to go [Verse 3] Well, one man he drinks up his whisky And another man he drinks up his wine Oh, they drink till their eyes are red with hate For those of a different kind [Verse 4] Now when the rivers run thicker than trouble I'll be there at your side in the flood It was all I could do to keep myself From taking revenge on your blood [Chorus] Oh, oh, helpless and slow When you don't have anywhere to go Oh, oh, helpless and slow When you don't have anywhere to go
