A curse has laid o'er this wretched land Most of the folks here don't give a damn Should I bide my time or start the fight? Wait for the sound of drums pounding in the night
Ah ah ah ah
Sit down for a spell Have I got a story for you One that the old folks tell Would you believe it's true?
Whether God is great or the folly of man The faithful and the fools all have the same plan Wait for something to happen so they don't have to act Cowards and zealots running in the same pack, oh
Sit down for a spell Have I got a story for you One that the old folks tell Would you believe it's true?
Ah ah ah ah
The lakes are boiling, the rivers swell Spirits are restless. Can't you hear them yell?
