|
And I take you down to the burning ground |
|
And you change me up and you turned it around |
|
In the wind and rain I'm gonna see you again |
|
In the morning sun and when the day is done |
|
And you take my hand and you walk with me |
|
Sometimes it feels like eternity |
|
And I turn the tide, I get back my pride |
|
And I make you proud, won't you say it out loud? |
|
When I take you down to the burning ground |
|
To the burning ground, to the burning ground |
|
To the burning ground, to the burning ground |
|
And I take you down by the factory |
|
And I show you like it has to be |
|
And you understand how the work is done |
|
And I pick up the sack in the midday sun |
|
And I pull you through by the skin of your teeth |
|
And I lift the veil, I see what's underneath |
|
And you return to me and you sit on your throne |
|
And you make me feel that I'm not alone |
|
And I take you down to the burning ground |
|
To the burning ground, to the burning ground |
|
To the burning ground |
|
Hey man, what's that you're carrying? |
|
Feels like lead, it weighs a ton |
|
Let's see if we can dump it by the side of the hill |
|
Hey wait up, why don't you dump it on the burning ground? |
|
Dump it down there, yeah, man, dump the jute |
|
Hey, man dump the jute on the burning ground |
|
Dump the jute? Yeah, you know, dump the jute, dump the jute |
|
On the burning ground, on the burning ground |
|
And you make me think what it's all about |
|
Sometimes, I know, gonna work it out |
|
And I watch you run in the crimson sun |
|
Tear my shirt apart open up my heart |
|
And I watch you run down on your bended knees |
|
By the burnt out well, can you tell me please? |
|
Between Heaven and Hell, won't you take me down? |
|
To the burning ground, to the burning ground |
|
To the burning ground, to the burning ground |
|
And you fall and pray, when you hear that sound |
|
As we're walking back to the burial mound |
|
And you shake your head and you turn it around |
|
And you see the flames from the burning ground |
|
And you get down on your knees and pray |
|
And I catch my breath as we're running away |
|
And I take the jute and I throw him down |
|
On the burning ground, on the burning ground |
|
On the burning ground, it's on the burning ground |
