《The Great Divide》歌词

[00:00:00] The Great Divide - Janis Ian
[00:00:00] Written by:Janis Ian
[00:00:11] Come good people and gather 'round
[00:00:17] Step out of the water before you drown
[00:00:23] Tide is coming swift and deep
[00:00:25] Gonna knock you off your feet
[00:00:33] There's a tide of greed that knows no shame
[00:00:39] And a tide of money that holds no stain
[00:00:45] A tide of men who worship pride
[00:00:47] And will not be denied
[00:00:55] While politicians lie and cheat
[00:00:58] To get to higher ground
[00:01:00] We follow them like sheep
[00:01:03] And salute them as we drown
[00:01:06] But no man will be king
[00:01:09] When all men wear the crown
[00:01:11] And there will be a reckoning
[00:01:14] From deep inside the rising tide
[00:01:20] As we tear down the walls
[00:01:24] Of the great divide
[00:01:36] Come good people and gather here
[00:01:42] You who still hold freedom dear
[00:01:47] Step across the waters
[00:01:50] Bring your sons and daughters
[00:01:58] Some will sink and some will swim
[00:02:04] Some will walk on the water again
[00:02:09] Some will rise and some will fall
[00:02:12] Each one will hear the call
[00:02:20] While churches counsel patience
[00:02:23] And heavenly reward
[00:02:25] They sub divide our nations
[00:02:27] By the shield and by the sword
[00:02:31] And every congregation
[00:02:33] Has a pipeline to the lord
[00:02:36] But there will be no salvation
[00:02:38] And no place to hide for those who lied
[00:02:44] And buried us alive to build the walls
[00:02:49] Of the great divide
[00:03:01] And oh when the poorest of the poor
[00:03:04] Come knocking at the door
[00:03:07] They will not be denied
[00:03:11] And oh when those who took too much
[00:03:15] Are stripped of it and judged
[00:03:18] Then mercy will provide for the rising tide
[00:03:33] So come good people and gather 'round
[00:03:39] Come and stand on common ground
[00:03:44] Raise your voices up and sing
[00:03:47] Let's make the heavens ring
[00:03:55] And you whose silence costs your soul
[00:04:01] Learn to speak or dig your hole
[00:04:06] Tomorrow's here and it won't wait
[00:04:08] No time to hesitate
[00:04:17] The tide's already risen
[00:04:19] The deluge is at hand
[00:04:22] Don't sit there by the ocean
[00:04:24] While it sucks away the sand
[00:04:27] 'Cause you'll be left with nothing
[00:04:29] But the memory of land
[00:04:33] While we sit high above the tide
[00:04:36] And watch the walls begin to fall
[00:04:41] As one by one our children wave goodbye
[00:04:46] To the great divide
