John Wayne |
| My grandpa had a rifle that he took from a Vietcong |
| But he pawned it on a guitar when he got back from Saigon |
| Every now and then I think about him when I set down to play |
| Swing Low Sweet Chariot, Amazing Grace |
| So let the beat roll on, I’m 'bout to get in the zone |
| I been locked up all by myself but I’m known to grow my own |
| I burn it till it’s gone like there ain’t nothing wrong |
| I’m just out in the shade watching the world go up in flames |
| (Up in flames) |
| I was born from barbwire, I been stuck out in the fray |
| I’ma shed this mortal coil like a canebrake rattlesnake |
| I’m gonna feast among the righteous, gonna see my friends again |
| I’ma dance outside the gates, hoping like hell they let me in |
| So let the beat roll on, I’m 'bout to get in the zone |
| I been locked up all by myself but I’m known to grow my own |
| I burn it till it’s gone like there ain’t nothing wrong |
| I’m just out in the shade watching the world go up in flames |
| (Up in flames) |
| (Oh, yeah) |
| (Oh, yeah) |
| (Oh, yeah) |
| California’s burning, it’s snowing in the pines |
| They say the world is ending, well, maybe it’s about time |
| Have we forgot about the children? |
| Forgot about love? |
| Have we forgot about forgiveness from the good Lord up above? |
| So let the beat roll on, I’m 'bout to get in the zone |
| I been locked up all by myself but I’m known to grow my own |
| I burn it till it’s gone like there ain’t nothing wrong |
| I’m just out in the shade watching the world go up in flames |
| (Up in flames) |
| Watching the world go up in flames |
| Watching the world go up in flames |
| (Oh, yeah) |
| (Oh, yeah) |
| (Oh, yeah) |
| (Oh, yeah) |
