I was doing time in Salvation Park
up on the high rope me your ace of hearts
just when I thought I was so special
I thought I had it all
you take a wrong step
before you fall and youre
Stumbling to Bethlehem
in this absence of light
stumbling to Bethlehem
dont worry darling
yeah dont think twice
Now theres this man on the corner
in a long black sweater saying
sinners they will burn forever
well I must be guilty of something
some price I forgot to pay
I must have done somebody wrong
somewhere along the way
that keeps me
Stumbling to Bethlehem
in this absence of light
stumbling to Bethlehem
dont worry darling
yeah dont think twice
now you can count up all your blessings
you can count up every curse
but you never really know
which is better
or which is worse
so you try to do right
but it gets so rough
theres always someone
to remind you
that youre just not good enough
and youre
Stumbling to Bethlehem
in this absence of light
Im stumbling to Bethlehem
dont worry darling
yeah dont feel twice
dont worry darling
yeah its alright
