The Banker - Dan Seals |
| [00:22.26] |
The banker came today |
| [00:24.72] |
Found bobby pitchin hay |
| [00:26.94] |
By the road side |
| [00:32.70] |
Said this paper in my hand |
| [00:36.19] |
I will own this land |
| [00:38.29] |
In a few days |
| [00:43.68] |
Bobby's eyes fell to the ground |
| [00:46.93] |
He kicked the dirt around |
| [00:49.44] |
In silence |
| [00:54.34] |
He watched the banker drive away |
| [00:57.92] |
He knew he could not pay |
| [01:00.08] |
And it was over |
| [01:05.76] |
But you can take a man's gold |
| [01:08.47] |
But you'll never own his soul |
| [01:11.56] |
The freedom of the soul |
| [01:14.01] |
Lasts forever |
| [01:25.65] |
Well bobby went to town |
| [01:28.10] |
Searchin' all around for a favor |
| [01:35.77] |
And he found bo the old town drunk |
| [01:39.34] |
Sleepin' in his bunk in the stable |
| [01:47.09] |
As you've only got one leg |
| [01:50.16] |
But you won't have to beg |
| [01:52.45] |
If you'll help me |
| [01:58.12] |
You see I'm going to sink a well |
| [02:01.29] |
I'll dig right down to hell if I have to |
| [02:08.83] |
'Cause you can take a man's gold |
| [02:11.71] |
But you'll never own his soul |
| [02:14.98] |
The freedom of the soul lasts forever |
| [02:28.63] |
Day and night they worked the well |
| [02:31.60] |
They slept right where they fell |
| [02:33.84] |
In exhaustion |
| [02:39.43] |
There was magic in the air |
| [02:42.58] |
And neither seemed to care |
| [02:44.84] |
What it would cost them |
| [03:18.11] |
They were awakened by a sound |
| [03:21.27] |
A deep rumbling in the ground |
| [03:24.28] |
They felt as if an earthquake had begun |
| [03:29.53] |
Mother nature's precious crude |
| [03:32.75] |
It bubbled and it spewed |
| [03:35.45] |
And exploded like a geyser in the sun |
| [04:01.55] |
Bobby went to town |
| [04:03.68] |
The people gathered 'round to see him |
| [04:11.90] |
There was oil everywhere |
| [04:14.70] |
In his eyes and in his hair |
| [04:17.47] |
And he was laughin' |
| [04:22.89] |
And he took his oil filled cap |
| [04:27.75] |
And he dumped it in the lap |
| [04:31.73] |
Of the banker |
