[chorus] I don’t wanna think about you, all day long. I don’t wanna dream about you, girl I do miss you. Just a little, just a little, just a little, okay maybe more than just a little bit. [verse 1] Yeah, I'm done confusing you girl, we both come from two different worlds. And you don’t wanna come around mine, but what happened that night was the usual drill. Head over heels, with ya head over heels. How many times did I say I'm no good, girl even your friends know the deal. So what you phoning me still? If you don’t hear no evil, then you won’t see no evil, girl I don’t wanna be no hero. We had a little fling on the d-low, and I ain’t really sure how I feel so I'm in a club with a bottle of Veuve Cliquot and that's why I can’t let you beat my ego. [chorus] I don’t wanna think about you, all day long. I don’t wanna dream about you, girl I do miss you. Just a little, just a little, just a little, okay maybe more than just a little bit. [verse 2] Maybe I'm used to pain, love is a losing game. Why’d I let you feel the flame, I think I'm falling I refuse to say. Usually this is never gonna work at all, first of all it was too personal, so when you phone me I gotta divert the call cause when you take the lead your gonna fly the fool but I, don’t wanna deal with the commotions I don’t do commitments, I don’t do devotion that's why you sent a letter to me, that I never opened. Give me space to breathe so I can deal with my emotions. [chorus] I don’t wanna think about you, all day long. I don’t wanna dream about you, girl I do miss you. Just a little, just a little, just a little, okay maybe more than just a little bit. |

The season of life is here And the reason to live is clear We've waited 'till who knows when For the time to begin again It's more than the change of time It's something that's in all our minds That no matter where or when For endings are only Places where all things begin And the end is near Of things we have grown to fear We worry and reason why With the times that change our lives But more than the changing time Is the image in all our minds Of where it should be or when For endings are always Places where all things begin Oh, look at the sun On every stage, in everyone Ah, stand in the light As we get on, we will put up a fight (places where) all things begin... |

Have mercy on a fool like me My eyes were open but I just couldn't see The way the world works without honesty Honestly, I was blind When all my heroes have been laid to rest And all my idols I have come to possess And I'm still looking for some true happiness in my heart Nothing here is certain We chase a shadow of our own dream's design And wonder why it takes so long And wonder just where we went wrong We hold a candle in the wind to light our way Go lightly in your judgement please I didn't know the world was filled with such greed I'm only asking let your heart intercede And I know they still exist They say you learn something new every day I want to learn to forget all this dismay At finding out the way that some folks play Only they's gonna win ... Nothing here is sacred The golden calf we worshipped has fallen from it's shrine and left us standing here stranded Our only hope's to abandon These foolish dreams that we've pursued for far too long Have mercy, have mercy ... |

Ain't nobody out there gonna disagree We're all hiding something under lock 'n' key You don't like it but you just can't stop (but) keep your screws on tight We'll undo all that's been done to you tonight This is the place it all begins There's no time to back down There is no reason to pretend Just take these pleasures now Now... |

Make my own world I'm on my own and I don't need that world at all Runnin' from an angry crowd No escape from your kind Ice age, the wind is chilly And the sun is almost gone Mad race, is growin' cold and your life's gettin' on No time to stop, your number's up Make my own world I'm on my own and I don't need that world at all Runnin' from an angry crowd No escape from your kind |

I was living in Angola, Reading in the paper 'Bout the new depression Got the States upset Still, I just can't see How only one TV And two slightly used cars Causes such regrets In this country such as ours, If we had these things, We would either be European Or descend from kings Oh! Sometimes, you know, I hunger for more than food, For more than the shelter From the cold monsoons I'd like swimmin' pools And refrigerated air And an extra room to spare (No more ten to a room), And a thinking color set With a close-up zoom But in this country such as ours, If we had these things, We'd be a U.N. delegation Or a visiting queen Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah And you remember well The day when old Wall Street fell And do you fear it again? Still there is one major difference In just how we see some things What you call poor we call prosperity Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Ooh!

I've heard them say the war is over But here am I, out flyin' again Who knows if I'm wrong or right But when time has ended this flight, This koan of life will be at an end When you're a kamikaze Fly more from inspiration than for joy Though they think I'm crazy, I'm really just an ordinary boy I've heard them say that life is easy Then why am I at zero again? I drink from the sake cup I leave when the rising sun's up, And take my fate and fear to the skies When you're a kamikaze Fly more from inspiration than for joy Think I'm crazy, May be just an ordinary boy 've heard them say the war is over But here am I, out flyin' again Who knows if I'm wrong or right But when time has ended this flight, This koan of life will be at an end When you're a kamikaze Fly more from inspiration than for joy Think I'm crazy Kamikaze I'm a kamikaze Yes, I'm a kamikaze Oh A kamikaze |

The clock gets to be such a bore What'cha livin' for Though I can't explain, being sane's Just a dreary chore I'd like to go fly past mountains See Mama Frog at her fountain She'll be there in her golden frog Sequined uniform Golden chair, three trained human clowns Who will soon perform Balancing books with their heads Trying to recall what they've said Past the gate you will soon be in A garden paradise Don't be late there, the shining jewels Sparkle in your eyes All waiting there for your pleasure What's keeping you from this treasure? Narration of "Jabberwock" from "Alice In Wonderland" 'Twas brillig and the slithy toves Did gyre and gimble in the wabe; All mimsy were the borogoves, And the mome raths outgrabe. "Beware the Jabberwock, my son! The jaws that bite, the claws that catch ?Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun The frumlous Bandersnatch!" He took his vorpal sword in hand: Long time the manxome foe he sought ?So rested he by the Tumtum tree, And stood awhile in thought. And as in uffish thought he stood, The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame, Came whiffling through the tulgey wood, And burbled as it came! One, two! One, two! And through and through The vorpal blade went snicker-snack! He left it dead, and with its head He went galumphing back. "And hast thou slain the Jabberwock? Come to my arms, my beamish boy! O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!" He chortled in his joy. 'Twas brillig and the slithy toves Did gyre and gimble In the wabe; All mimsy were the borogoves And the mome raths outgrabe The clock gets to be such a bore What'cha livin' for Though I can't explain, being sane's Just a dreary chore I'd like to go fly past mountains See Mama Frog at her fountain |

Hurry up, get along, be on your way
And make sure that your certain it's not the wrong day Punctual people are lost in their plight To become unprecedented when they arrive Why am I searching and when will I know? Are the years that I've waited with nothing to show? I'm ready to listen I'm ready to win But I can't wait much longer before we begin Time waits for no one Time waits for no one, no one, no one There's time to conceive in and time to expire Though the time 'twixt the two tells the tale that transpires So why must we continually disturb the universe With decisions and revisions which a minute will reverse? So people don't worry 'bout where you've gone wrong 'Cause you know if you hurry it takes twice as long Relax and forget about what's to be done It's time to have fun Time waits for no one Time waits for no one It really doesn't matter much to me I know the best times are timeless, you'll see... |

I've never been a thief, but I won't say I'll never steal I've never been a star, but that doesn't mean I don't appeal I always read the Bible, but too seldom do I kneel Well I disregard the writing and I play just what I feel So what do I care? Why should I care? All I really want is something more than you can order From a telephone, if they call I'm not at home So write it off as another loss And let the world leave me alone Let the world leave me alone I've been a truthful man, but I won't say I've never lied I've always had a plan, but somehow it never was applied Never got my share of lovin', I've always been denied I ain't greedy, but I aim to take what rightfully is mine All I really want is something that I do not have to share Hide it under lock and key so they'll never see Or they'll never know And let someone else be responsible And let the world leave me alone People try to tell me I'm a dreamer Wastin'everybody else's time Movin' all around I'm just a schemer Gettin' into everybody's way Let the world leave me alone Let the world leave me alone Let the world leave me alone World leave me alone |

Of man's progress I don't give a hoot And man's estrangements Of nature's arrangements Has given cause for my heartbreak To boot The simple life though Filled with strife And struggle with the land Still remained its simple self And that I understand So city smog and dog eat dog For some may hold sublime Well as for me If I had my way I'd had lived Some other time Praise the prairie And pass the cake I'd like to eat it too But being born now was my mistake I've passed the buckaroo I'd say You're right No chance Why fight? Why be A cowboy star (But) Hump back brahmas Lovely cow mamas Saw dust floor saloons Dance hall queens Romanced in my dreams So why pop my baloon? No chance Why fight?

One thin line Draws the border Between madness And the genius But no pen can erase it So we keep these things Between us I dreamed a lot when I was younger I'm older now and still I hunger For some understanding There's no understanding, now Was there ever?

Sometimes I feel That we've been herded like sheep We've been led out like lambs to the slaughter And empty souls Have kept the downtrodden down And took the best and left us the fodder Still in my heart I feel such purpose A reason for being alive And I want to know, I want to know Sometimes it seems There was meant to be more Than this rush and this battle to living And there's the times We've all tasted the space That you know when we feel that we're giving So take some time to think about this I'm blinded now, I'd like to see And I want to know, I want to know I want to see through all the barriers That were created before I was born Were they put out there just to guide me Or keep the weak from becoming strong I want to know, I want to know Still in my heart I feel such purpose A reason for being alive And I want to know Sometimes I fear That all men are asleep Must we shout to awake those that slumber? |

That's where I've been today Somewhere beyond all reason But it became the only way I could find it Something inside of me I can find it Someplace I've always dreamed of That's what I finally see And when I'm there I feel love So there I always want to be I believe it Believe in myself I have seen it And there's a day when you'll wake With the sun in your eyes Hearing a voice that is calling Within you to rise (Rise...) Someday I'll be there Though I know not Where I go There I'll be When I go Somewhere I'd never travelled That's where it all began And as my dreams unravel I long to go that way again I am waiting Waiting to take you there No more waiting (Off you go...) |

Leaping quick on leopard's back I face the brunt of his attack In the land of nod I'm king Until the alarm clock rings Stepping out from safety's door I hear the rushing traffic roar Smiling to myself I say, "...Hooray its a brand new day" Slashing my way through vine I'll kill if I have to I'll be there on time Clawed through the freeway jam I curse at the guy who passed me Last time 'round In my office settled back Drink a cup of coffee (black) Stretch my mind and try'n erase The thought of the day to face Life is like the leopard's den And once you find you've fallen in A safari of the heart Surely comes to an end Madness is our damnation Strange is the situation we're all in To one man it matters nothing Others it shatters something; no one wins I could not see it myself (Though I'd read about it) I could not hear it myself (Though I'd heard about it) I could not feel it myself (Though I knew that it was real) I could not hear it myself (Don't you lie about it) I could not feel it myself (But don't you cry about it) For there's an animal in us all The brunt of which you'll see |

Can I help you? Could I reach you?

World is callin' (Just one man) Ooooohhhh Where can I turn?, ain't got a clue (Aaaahh, ohh the sky is fallin') Sky is fallin' Time has come (And I've got bills to pay) Tomorrow's calling (I've gotta live today, live today) (Ohh) It's a hard drive home Round the corner from the condo town Living' next to five types of violence It's enough just to bring you down Gonna mess you 'round (Mess you 'round) And you want me to bend over To pull the rich man's plow Yeah, that's the way it's always been Why should anybody Wanna change it now Sky is fallin' (I don't understand) Ooooohhhh (Tell me, what am I to do?) World is callin' (Just one man) Ooooohhhh (And I haven't got a clue) (Aaaahh, ohh the sky is fallin') Sky is fallin' (I've got bills to pay) Time has come (Ooooohhhh the world is callin') The world is callin' (I've gotta live today, live today) (Yeahhhh) (Woooohhhh) (I've gotta live, live...) (Ooooohhhh) And you don't know why or when it's gonna be (But you heard it's out there waiting) (Ooooohhhh) Do you pull up stakes and leave or wait and see Ahhh If it's a false alarm? Ahhh, Ahhh There's an outside chance Ooohh, we could win it in overtime But the clock is running Night is comin' If you're gonna save yourself Better get off the dime Sky is fallin' (Sky is fallin') Ooooohhhh (Tell me, what do I do?) World is callin' (Well, I'm just one man) Ooooohhhh (And I ain't got a clue, ain't got a clue) (Oooooh) Sky is fallin' (the sky is fallin') Time has come (I've got bills to pay) World is callin' (Tomorrow's coming) (I can't turn it around, but I can't turn away) |

Well, I'm livin' but I still ain't satisfied
I'm runnin' but I don't know where to hide There have been lovers, places I've known Strangers I've turned to when I've been alone And I'm leavin' 'cause I'm still not satisfied Yeah, I'm bleedin' and I don't know where to hide There have been places I'd like to have seen Dreams that have never come true But in this lifetime there's no in between In between living with you I've been shot down but still I stand to fight I know what's wrong but I don't know what's right 'Cause all of your money, sweet talk and gold Can't buy a heart back that's already sold And I'm leaving 'cause I still ain't satisfied Yeah, I'm bleedin' and I don't know where to hide I have no reason to go back again Living but not getting through 'Cause in this lifetime there's no in between In between living with you Ain't found nothing to rely on No place I feel at home Show me something to get by on Seems I've waited so long I don't hear what you say anymore Well, I'm runnin'... |

Hurry up, get along, be on your way
And make sure that your certain It's not the wrong day Punctual people are lost in their plight To become unprecedented when they arrive Why am I searching and when will I know? Are the years that I've waited with nothing to show? I'm ready to listen I'm ready to win But I can't wait much longer before we begin Time waits for no-one Time waits for no-one No-one,No-one There's time to conceive in and time to expire Though the time 'twixt the two tells the tale that transpires So why must we continually disturb the universe With decisions and revisions which a minute will reverse So people don't worry 'bout where you've gone wrong Cause you know if you hurry it takes twice as long Relax and forget about what's to be done, it's time to have fun Time waits for no-one Time waits for no-one It really doesn't matter much to me I know the best times are timeless, you'll see... |

Oh Baby
said now you, you talk about the things I do But baby, I'll try to expain the reasons why Cause I've been thinking about things you said late last night when all the words I said didn't come out right And you were so afraid that I found someone new Darling, there's no need for what we're going through You and I have been in love too long To worry about tomorrow Here's the place where we both belong You're the only woman that I've been dreaming of You're the only woman that I really love Baby, see what a foolish heart has done for me Darling why would you break my heart and make me cry You can't go back and change the ways things are All this foolish talk won't take us very far I hope you're listening because I'm telling you about the way I'm feeling and what I am going through Don't speak. Shhhh.... When the pain of love surrounds you And the world may be unkind I'll put my loving arms around you And take you far from this place and time |

You lie over there in a bed with iron rails Like a frightened child in the cold light, so frail Things were going do well, just rolling along Now, just when you think you've got it made You think it's all gone China Doll, I've got something for you A few good words, a hand to help you get through May not be much, but now it's all that I can do Lay down your weary head Do whatever you gotta do Put on your strong face when they're in the room Can't show signs of weakness; an unspoken rule Put on your strong face, act like nothing's wrong We can be so helpless, helpless and so strong China Doll, I've got something for you A few good words, a hand to help you get through May not be much, but now it's all that I can do To ease your worried mind Do something to get through We bend and break, so fragile, it's true I say everything'll be alright but I don't have a clue They say faith is a crutch, well, whatever works for you In a world where you never know I'll be there for you China Doll, I've got something for you A few good words, a hand to help you get through May not be much, but now it's all that I can do To ease your worried mind Do something to get through |

When the night lies so still Before I go to sleep I come by, I come by Just to look at you In the dim light I say That in my own small way I will try, I will try To help you through There'll be blue skies falling There'll be sad scenes and bad dreams In a world so uncertain Through the clouds it's hard to see I will grab you and lift you As you hold on tight and sway We'll go walking Across the fields of gray There's a place I can go When the world gets me down When nothing, when nothing Goes quite right it seems As I look there I know Fortune smiles on me so But who knows, no one knows About tomorrow There'll be blue skies falling There'll be sad scenes and bad dreams In a world so uncertain Through the clouds it's hard to see I will grab you and lift you As you hold on tight and sway We'll go walking Across the fields of gray When I was younger I saw things in black and white Now all I see is a sad, hazy gray Sometimes I see a narrow flash of light Sometimes I look and you show me the way - 간 주 중 - No matter what else happens What the future will be In a world so uncertain Through the clouds it's hard to see I will grab you and carry you Calm your fears if you're afraid We'll go walking Across the fields of gray |

Close your eyes and slip away To the dream of your fancy Close your eyes and float downstream To where the marsh grass dances Take youdown where the air is thick Try to make you shake and shiver Make you see there will be no tricks There will be no tricks tonight There will be some tricks tonight We could go down to the harbor lights Lay out on the sand on the shore Let me take you down to the docks at night Whatever you'll do I'll do more Take some hours and waste them away Let your mind flow freely Take some time and forget about the time You may find a little feeling I can see you shining with sweat Like to make you shake and shiver We could feel the air so wet We could feel it all tonight We could feel it all tonight We could go down to the harbor lights Lay out on the sand on the shore Let me take you down to the docks at night Whatever you'll do I'll do more Take you down where the air is thick Like to make you shake and shiver What I'll show you, you've probably seen Why not come on again Why not come see it again We could go down to the harbor lights Lay out on the sand on the shore Let me take you down to the docks at night Whatever you'll do I'll do more |

Is he sane or insane That's all they want to know Is he crazy or strange then If so, I want to go I've seen him leave at night Followed him so far Drove out about thirteen miles Then he pulled in to a shothouse bar For a Long Tall Cool One Don't know just what's going down Long Tall Cool One Looks like a new friend I've found Walking in the shadows Now I want back in the light As I make the drop I've got some Second thoughts tonight You see I walked in, sat right down Offered him a light Big talk for about thirteen hours He said can you help me with a job tonight For a Long Tall Cool One Don't know just what's going down Long Tall Cool One He said something's in it for me right now I've reached out into the darkness Jumped up from my bed Woke up in the middle of the night Got myself in way over my head For the Long Tall Cool One Don't know just what's going down Long Tall Cool One Looks like a new friend I've found |

Train rolls by about 3 a.m. Wakes me up from a fitful sleep Got the urge to jump on board I believe I'm in a little too deep Walk the train station Walking through the park Looking out for something Still in the dark One day you'll see something Oh, with a familiar ring It'll be just me moving through On the way to something It's your life, it's your world It's your world, and I'm just passing through It's your life, it's your world Your life and I'm just passing through Tired and confused, yes I am Don't see much in the future for me I'm a vagabond and a drifter Not so hard to be Walking down the highway Walking through the park Looking out for something Still in the dark Don't know what to say when I see you smile So I guess I'll just turn my head and go On the way to another mile It's your life, it's your world It's your world, and I'm just passing through It's your life, it's your world Your life and I'm just passing through Walking down the highway Walking through the park Looking out for something Still in the dark Want faith in something So hard to believe Maybe on night soon Maybe you could make me see It's your life, it's your world It's your world, and I'm just passing through It's your life, it's your world Your life and I'm just passing through |

Hey now, where are you going Where are you going to my friend Said I'm going out to find The pastures of plenty I believe that they're out there somewhere Did you hear about the girl Alone in the world Thought she was losing her mind She found it in the discarded refuse pile Down near the railroad line A book of sonnets torn and tattered A few remained intact One held the key, she said to me To getting some feeling back Sometimes my head turns round and round Sometimes you talk, but I can't hear a sound Sometimes I look down, find my feet off the ground I feel that I'm somewhere else bound Hey now, where are you going Where are you going to my friend Said I'm going out to find The pastures of plenty I believe that they're out there somewhere She looked down the railroad track Lined with trees on each side She prayed for the strength to run to the boxcar To pull herself up for a ride You invite me to your house - you're so sincere We sit so close for a while You reach out for me in the low light so clear But you look like you're frowning when you smile Hanging around just to see what could happen Hanging on by oh, the thinnest thread Sometimes I feel the faintest glimpse Sometimes I feel I'd be better off in bed Hey now, where are you going Where are you going to my friend Said I'm going out to find The pastures of plenty I believe that they're out there somewhere |

Sometimes I get lucky Most times I come up short Got to pull up the lines Got to move around the bend They say it's a dying breed They say it's going to disappear Nothing I can do, oh, but pull up the load again The tide will rise And the tide will fall We'll be out on the water Before the break of dawn The tide will rise And the tide will fall Oh, we'll be working on the water When the long, long day is gone Full moon it was always best Keep a little and you sell the rest Living on hope that the seed is sown again Red sky in the evening Better times are coming they say Well, why do I feel it's all coming to an end The tide will rise And the tide will fall We'll be out on the water Before the break of dawn The tide will rise And the tide will fall Oh, we'll be working on the water When the long, long day is gone When the seed is broken Nothing left to grow on When you lose the seed It's hard to bring it on back Never bowed to no one Always went my own way Broke down, run aground, but I won't run away And the tide will rise The tide will rise And the tide will fall We'll be out on the water Before the break of dawn The tide will rise And the tide will fall Oh, we'll be working on the water When the long, long day is gone |

Once they get out on the road Well then everything is alright Had to get away from the kids and the wives Well they ran into some city boys that didn't walk just right And the line was drawn for another showdown Like they'd always seen it done And when the lights came up on the little woods town Ther was an old man bailing out a son Going out for a night on the town Going out to the smoke and trees Going out for a night on the town Going out for a look and see Said do what your daddy told you Well I just went out and did that Van and Willie went out one night There's a green table down at the midway Where they rack up the balls for the games And reputations are made There's a green forest full of oaks and pines Where they cleared a cleared a space in the middle Where secret scores are settled And the claim was made round the table that night And they rode off through the trees And the young boys tell how the city boys tried And how one man fell to his knees Going out for a night on the town Going out to the smoke and trees Going out for a night on the town Going out for a look and see Said what made you go and do that Well we were just having a little fun Van and Willie went out one night And the line was drawn for another showdown Like they'd always seen and done And one mans night for a drunken old time Left a scar on on another one Going out for a night on the town Going out to the smoke and trees Going out for a night on the town Going out for a look and see Said do what your daddy told you Well I just went out and did that Van and Willie went out one night |

She moved back around here thirty-five weeks ago today
Oh down the lane At night she walks on the banks and remembers how she Dreamed of rowing away And how she left one day She left with a driven look in her eyes Came back around with it still inside They said give it some time and you'll forget about it too We know they always do Well I know Some fine day You will find your way Across the river Row down slow There's a long way to go Across the river She was proud and so strong And she tried not to listen to idle talk Downtown where she walked They sit around and they say That she came back with her tail between her legs Like they always said she would Well I hear it's better on the other side They say you'll never do it so don't even try Well you may be beaten downwith your closed mind But don't try and make it mine Well I know Some fine day You will find your way Across the river Row down slow There's a long way to go Across the river "Your wild days are through" is what they said I dreamed she came, when I was down and I walked where she led Standing on the shore She looks to the west with a look of longing To where the grass seems greener There's a hard and distant prize It probably won't happen but I think I'll try Well even if it doesn't happen for me It still beats hanging around here Well I know Some fine day You will find your way Across the river Row down slow There's a long way to go Across the river |

Woke up this morning looking at the screen
There's a couple of men talking I'm not sure what they mean There's a conversation many men running wild We learn about the world while they're fighting in the aisles Here we go What do you say, what do you know You've got your life and you watch it away It's just another day in this old town So get down Home Shopping Channel's got us by the eyes Scrambling to the phones ordering porcelain flies Talk to the women talk to the wives Everybody's buying important things for their lives Here we go What do you say, what do you know You've got your life and you watch it away It's just another day in this old town So get down He's a high performance engine with Jesus as the fuel Old father's handing out forty acres and a mule Preaching the word of prosperity Make a little more money they might just put you on t.v. Here we go What do you say, what do you know You've got your life and you watch it away Ain't no big thing it's just another day Ain't no big thing so let it ring Let it ring George Turn off the lights honey then turn off the set Life around here don't make a lot of damn sense As I closed my eyes I saw in my mind Somebody selling me a nickle for a dime Here we go What do you say, what do you know You've got your life and you watch it away It's just another day in this old town So get down, ain't no big thing so let it ring In this old town so get down It's another day so go ahead Go ahead Everybody go |

There were people living in a green valley
Found a way to make a lot of money Made the green turn gradually gray They figured they could do whatever they wanted Everything would be alright But scars don't always heal away And the sons and the daughters got diamonds and gold But they were given a land where Strong roots never take hold Good seed don't grow On the barren ground Good things don't come along As you just sit dreaming on Good seed don't grow On the barren ground Say everything fades away There you are still around What'll you do where will you go Ther was a ship along the coast Carrying a load of black money In the sound near the northern lights When the ship set sail The crew looked for guidance In the bottom of an empty glass Then the captain said "pour me another rye" Then the water turned black as that cold winter's night Good seed don't grow On the barren ground Good things don't come along As you just sit dreaming on Good seed don't grow On the barren ground Say everything fades away There you are still around What'll you do where will you go |

To shoot 'em all down if they try to cross over the water And they've got their old white hoods and the same old orders To keep the dark sons away from their daughters The nights they came on horses Are long gone with the wind Now they're passing out the torches And they're coming back again There's a shotgun blast There's a secret sign It's not a candle burning and it's not a Sunday night There's a fire on the cross There's a fire on the cross tonight There wasn't any sound but it felt like sudden thunder Two boards nailed together and burning bright He was walking by the window when he saw it Now he wonders Just what he's got to do to make him see He just want to be brothers The nights they came on horses Are long gone with the wind Now they're passing out the torches And they're coming back again There's a shotgun blast There's a secret sign It's not a candle burning and it's not a Sunday night There's a fire on the cross There's a fire on the cross tonight |
