Ode to all in pain
Written to Billy Joel’s song
Three O’clock on a Saturday
It is 3 o’clock in the morning
and my pain shuffles in
I wish yes wish
I could find relief from my pain
From drinking tonic and gin
Please God help me find an answer to
This pain that keeps me awake
People just do not know all the pain I have
And what a wreck of my life it does make
My friends coworkers and family
Don’t know all the pain I endure
Sometimes it’s so bad in the evening
I am up just walking the floor
Dear God help me find yes an answer to
This dilemma that yes I am in
Three hours of relief from this pain I am in
Yes Lord it seem like a sin
All the pills that I have that have not worked
Are stacking up in a bowl
And the tests and the doctors that
I have seen, are yes now growing very old
And all that see me everyday
Think that that nothing has changed
Because I don’t let my pain hamper me
A cheerful attitude is always shown on my face
I now have a doctor that seems to care
And better days are ahead he has told me
So I’ll continue putting my faith in him
Even though everyday I grow old
I hope now you understand what I have been through
And I do my best everyday
All I ask is yes that you will pray for me
And that my pain goes away
