Bang A Drum |
| I went to see the preacher |
| To teach me how to pray |
| He looked at me and smiled |
| Then that preacher turned away |
| He said if you want to tell him something |
| You ain’t gotta fold your hands |
| Say it with your heart, your soul and believe it |
| And I’d said amen |
| Bang a drum for the sinners |
| Bang a drum for his sins |
| Bang a drum for the losers |
| And those who win |
| Bang a drum bang it loudly |
| Or as soft as you need |
| Bang a drum for yourself son |
| And a drum for me |
| I called upon my brother |
| Just the other day |
| He said: John I’m gonna die |
| If I don’t start to live again |
| I work each day and night like clockwork |
| Just trying to make ends meet |
| I could kick this bad world’s ass if I could |
| Just get on my feet |
| I’d bang a drum for the lying |
| Bang a drum for the truth |
| Bang a drum for the innosence |
| Lost in our youth |
| Bang a drum bang it loudly |
| Or as soft as you need |
| Bang a drum for you brother |
| And a drum for me |
| I don’t know where |
| All the rivers run |
| I don’t know how far |
| I don’t know how come |
| But I’m gonna die believing |
| Each step that I take |
| Ain’t worth the ground that we walk on |
| If we don’t walk it our own way |
| Now I don’t claim to be a wyseman |
| A poet or a saint |
| I’m just another man who’s searching |
| For a better way |
| But my heart beats loud as thunder |
| For the things that I believe |
| Sometimes I wanna run for cover |
| Sometimes I want to scream |
| Bang a drum for tomorrow |
| Bang a drum for the past |
| Bang a drum for the heroes |
| That won’t come back |
| Bang a drum for the promise |
| Bang a drum for the lies |
| Bang a drum for the lovers |
