Whipping Boy

Bernie Taupin / Elton John / Jonathan Meiburg / Will Sheff

If i told you once, then i told you twice
That i would have paid just about any price
Just to see him jump, just to see him laugh
I would have washed in the blood of an innocent man


Let the whipping boy ride


The boy says to the wolf, "you're gonna be my dog"
The boy ties the wolf to a fence post
The wolf says, "boy, if you're gonna be my man
Let's see how you fit in those britches"


I found a river that doesn't run to the sea
I found a river through the dead lands
I found a river that's been beaten by the sun
But a river that never did surrender to the sands


Let the whipping boy ride
I want to see him
