《Ghosts Of Promised Lands》歌词

[00:00:01] Ghosts Of Promised Lands - Jackie Greene

[00:00:37] I live alone inside my mind

[00:00:42] Everyday is the day I die

[00:00:47] I go walking up the street

[00:00:49] Undetected in the heat

[00:00:51] With a thousand different

[00:00:53] Faces passing by

[00:00:57] They're out there hanging

[00:00:58] Posters of Jesus

[00:01:01] On my block they've covered

[00:01:03] Every wall Well I suppose

[00:01:08] We could all use a Savior

[00:01:11] So I told em to do the whole

[00:01:13] City and save us all

[00:01:17] There's a young kid wailing mad on a saxophone

[00:01:21] Someone screams "Man I dig the sound"

[00:01:26] The girls around the corner can make your nights

[00:01:30] A little warmer if you just let em take you down

[00:01:36] But you gotta let em take you down right

[00:01:52] There are some men who would lead

[00:01:54] Us to destruction They deal in dirt and pain

[00:01:58] And misery They talk the silver tongue one hand on

[00:02:06] A gun and spit lies at you and me

[00:02:11] Most people around here got no money

[00:02:16] They got chains that rain straight to drains

[00:02:21] They work for somebody who answers to somebody else

[00:02:27] And nobody knows their names It's a shame

[00:02:37] Come on come on and rise up Take somebody by the hand

[00:02:46] Come on come on and rise up All you ghosts of promised lands

[00:02:57] I'm not talking about revolution I'm not trying to make demands

[00:03:09] But I want you to know that wherever you go you got

[00:03:14] The whole wide world in your hands You got the whole wide world in

[00:03:21] Your hands

[00:03:24] Come on come on and rise up Take somebody by the hand

[00:03:34] Come on come on and rise up All you ghosts of promised lands

[00:03:44] Come on come on come on
