Well, I've been to a minor place And I can say I like its face If I am gone and with no trace I will be in my minor place Well, I put the shoes in line Separate the women mine As we do what we do fine So victorious, so benign Well, I've been to a minor place And I can say I like its face If I am gone and with no trace I will be in my minor place Only take the weather warm And the job that does me harm Since the scars of last year's storm Rest like maggots on my arm Well, I've been to a minor place And I can say I like its face If I am gone and with no trace I will be in my minor place Thank you man if for the thought That all my loving can be bought Was wisely in your gullet caught Before my loyalty you sought Well, I've been to a minor place And I can say I like its face If I am gone and with no trace I will be in my minor place No it's not a desert nor a web Nor a tomb where I lay dead Minor in a sound alone Yes, a clear commanding tone Singing from my little point And aching in my every joint I thank the world it will anoint me If I show it how I hold it
