I was born in a landslide
In the jungle land
I can play the piano
With a funeral hand

Ooh
Salt in the wound
Making me blue
Salt in the wound
Play me a tune

Worked on a railroad
Slept on a cot
If you got what it takes
Take what you got

Salt in the wound
Making me blue
Salt in the wound
Play me a tune

Out on the north sea
Where the waters are wild
You live like a mad dog
Like a (???) child

Salt in the wound
Making me blue
Salt in the wound
Play me a tune

Play me a tune
Play me a tune
Play me a tune
Play me a tune
