Lost by the Wayside Lyrics

I was heading down the road kinda late last night
Headin' home to hit the sack
When a man standing there right before my eyes
Had a cross upon his back

Well my eyes they just started rolling
They were rolling at this sight
I pushed the freak aside running for my life
Yea I left him way behind

Oh well the Lord said come forth, but I came fifth
And I was lost by the wayside (by the wayside)
And my dreams said don't go, but then I did
And I was caught in a landslide (by the wayside)
Caught in a landslide by the wayside

I was laying in my bed with some ladyfriend
When I thought I heard a noise
Well she said man when in doubt you'd
Better check it out
So I really had no choice

Well I don't mind to say it was scary
I was shaken by this sight
Hanging from my bed by a silver thread
I looked myself right in the eye

Oh well the Lord said come forth, but I came fifth
And I was lost by the wayside (by the wayside)
And my dreams said don't go, but then I did
And I was caught in a landslide (by the wayside)
Caught in a landslide by the wayside

Well my eyes they just started rolling
They were rolling at this sight
I pushed the freak aside running for my life
Yea I left him way behind

Oh well the Lord said come forth, but I came fifth
And I was lost by the wayside (by the wayside)
And my dreams said don't go, but then I did
And I was caught in a landslide (by the wayside)
Caught in a landslide by the wayside

And the Lord said come forth, but I came fifth
And I was lost by the wayside
Caught in a landslide
Lost by the wayside, by the wayside
