Lyrics Such Is The World That We Live In - Chris Hillman

Such Is The World That We Live In

My name is Charly Charlton, I lived here all my life
My family nom deSeven, I had a loving wife
I live out on the border on the outskirts of town
I’m not sure will be here when tomorrow comes around
My grind grandfather came here in 1853
Worked the land and raised the cross, fought for his liberty
If he were here right now just imagine what he’d see
I’m pretty sure he’d stop and say these words to me
Hold boys hold on tight, all is strong and now is right
Stand your ground and take up the fight
All we have is all we’ve been and here we go round and round again
Such is the world that we live in, that we live in
I never thought the day would come when I see America on the run
And not sure what they’re running from
When all is lost in our schools when the godless wants attempt to rule
We can only wonder who’s the fool, his horse was saddled
Hold boys hold on tight, we know everything’s gonna be alright
Now as you see the end’s in sight
No darkness will hold us down, no empty words will make a sound
We’ll be together again, such is the world that we live in
Hold boys hold on tight, we know everything’s gonna be alright
Now as you see the end’s in sight
No darkness will hold us down, no empty words will make a sound
We’ll be together again, such is the world that we live in
