Josh Ritter, Bob Weir - When Will I Be Changed? lyrics

I've been told there is a power in the blood
Is it enough?
Is it enough to carry me back from
Where I am to where I was?
And I hope there is some power in my blood

I've been told that all these
Ties would surely bind and hold me tight
Hold me tight
'Cause, I'm hanging at the end of my own line
And I hope that all these
Ties will surely bind

When, oh when, will I be changed?
When, oh when, will I be changed?
From this devil that I am
When, oh when, will I be changed?

I've been told I'll find some
Truth down in my bones but, I don't know
I don't know
I can't even seem to find my own road home
And I hope there is some
Truth down in my bones

When, oh when, will I be changed?
When, oh when, will I be changed?
From this devil that I am
When, oh when, will I be changed?

And I hope that in
This green and peacefulness
That you'll let me stay let me stay
Even a poor serpent needs a place to rest
For a while as he's waiting to be changed

When, oh when, will I be changed?
When, oh when, will I be changed?
From this devil that I am
When, oh when, will I be changed?
