Troubled Land |
Well there’s a pain in my side |
But I keep traveling on |
Bring peace to this troubled land |
It’s dark out here |
I can’t read those signs |
Bring peace to the troubled land |
Hurricane on the horizon |
Judgment getting closer all the time |
I can’t find tomorrow |
Bring peace to this troubled land |
Well there’s two men a walking |
Down the same dirty road |
Bring peace to this troubled land |
They stand shoulder to shoulder |
Carrying the same heavy load |
Bring peace to this troubled land |
One man’s eyes are full of sorrow |
The other man’s belly full of unbearable pain |
They keep getting closer |
Bring peace to this troubled land |
I’ve got many screaming children |
Ten million rows to hoe |
Bring peace to this troubled land |
Deader than an hammer |
But I can’t let go |
Bring peace to this troubled land |
The eyes of heaven are upon you |
But so is the soul from down below |
They’ll cut off your fingers |
To bring peace to this troubled land |
Well you can stand up and holler |
You can lay down and die |
Bring peace to this troubled land |
We can turn up our collars |
And never even try |
To bring peace to this troubled land |
Beware of those who want to harm you |
And drag you down to a lower game |
Just know the truth is coming |
To bring peace to this troubled land |
I got a pain in my side |
But I keep traveling on |
