Four walls I built one winter |
|
She came to share my name |
|
For years we lived as lovers on the open plains |
|
Far off the heat wave shimmers |
|
Pipelines and the gasoline |
|
One day it all came running like a bad dream |
|
Fire, smoke-filled lungs |
|
I hope I'll be standing when the day is done |
|
Yeah, we're... |
|
Staring out on the red plains |
|
And we're hiding out from the smoke and the rage |
|
A lifetime living on the red plains |
|
Watching out as it all goes up in flames |
|
Get up on Sunday morning |
|
Repent for Friday night |
|
Don't let 'em tell you it's gonna be a fair fight |
|
I gave her clothes and a diamond |
|
She loved the things that shine |
|
But one day the gold and the silver got left behind |
|
Fire, smoke-filled rooms |
|
I hope I'll be standing when the day is through |
|
Yeah, we're staring out on the red plains |
|
And we're hiding out from the blood and the smoke |
|
A lifetime living on the red plains |
|
Watching out as it all blows up in flames |
|
Na na na na na na na |
|
Na na na na na na |
|
Na na na na na nana na na na na |
|
Na na na na na na na |
|
Na na na na na na-na |
|
Na na na na na nana na na na na |
|
Fire, smoke-filled rooms |
|
I hope I'll be standing when the day is through |
|
Yeah, we're... |
|
Staring out on the red plains |
|
And we're hiding out from the smoke and the rage |
|
A lifetime living on the red plains |
|
Watching out as it all blows up in flames |
