Capaldi-Mason |
|
Everybody's standing in a lake, crying out for the rain |
|
Hoping for a miracle to drive away the pain |
|
And some are heavy with a thirst which burns their very soul |
|
For no one sees direction when they're standing in a hole. |
|
Big thirst on my head, oh Lord |
|
Big thirst in my mouth |
|
But I can see those green fields |
|
Stretchin' to the South. |
|
Some are walking in their graves, knowing it's no use |
|
Beaten up for ignorance and treated with abuse |
|
Oh God, I need your hand so bad, help me to get through |
|
'Cause I know there's a place for me standing next to you. |
|
Big thirst on my head, oh Lord |
|
Big thirst in my mouth |
|
I can see those green fields |
|
Stretchin' to the South. |
|
Everybody's looking up at the sky, waiting for a sign |
|
Blind men leading blind men who're dragging on a line |
|
People shooting at the sun, trying hard not to see |
|
All the trouble in this world that's caused by you and me. |
|
Big thirst on my head, oh Lord |
|
Big thirst in my mouth |
|
I can see those green fields |
|
Stretchin' to the South. |
|
Oh big thirst on my head, Lord |
|
Big thirst in my mouth |
|
I can see those green fields |
|
Stretchin' to the South. |
