Afraid Ain't Me - Bonnie "Prince" Billy

Scorn me not though I deserve

I’ve done fighting in my time

Long live the people hear me shout

And tell my enemies I’m blind now

Cold and clear, cold and clear,

Alone I may be

But afraid ain’t me

Trust to me your little ones

Slow and sweet I teach

Woman man in blended garments

Try to block my greatest moments

Cold and clear, cold and clear

Alone I may be

But afraid ain’t me

Oh the little black one comes

No one shouts out my name

Oh the little white one comes

Think love is a game?

Treat me well when wandered to your door

Bathe me please for I am dirty

Wash me hard with scalding tears

And with bath water drain my fears

Cold and clear, cold and clear

Alone I may be but

Afraid ain’t me

Cold and clear, cold and clear

Alone I may be but

Afraid ain’t me
