Alarm - The Stand lyrics
rate meOh I have been out searching with the black book in my hand<br />
And I've looked between the lines that lie on the pages that I tread<br />
I met the walking dude,religious, in his wom down cowboy boots <br />
He walked liked no man on earth <br />
I swear he had no name (had no name)<br />
I swear he had no name<br />
<br />
Come on down & meet your maker<br />
Come on down & make the stand<br />
Come on down, come on down,<br />
Come on down & make the stand.<br />
<br />
As I crawled beneath the searchlights <br />
Looking through the floorboards of this life<br />
I met Doctor Strangeloves cousin <br />
He bore the marks of time <br />
"Hey! Trashcan where you going boy<br />
Your eyes are feet apart<br />
Is that the end you're carrying Shall I play the funeral march" (play the march)<br />
"Play the funeral march"<br />
<br />
Come on down & meet your maker<br />
Come on down & make the stand<br />
Come on down, come on down,<br />
Come on down & we'll make the stand.<br />
<br />
Come on down & meet your maker<br />
Come on down & make the stand<br />
Come on down, come on down,<br />
Come on down, we'll make the stand.<br />
<br />
When I looked out the window<br />
On the hardship that had struck I saw the seven phials open <br />
The plague claimed man and son <br />
Four men at a grave in silence With hats bowed down in grace <br />
A simple wooden cross, <br />
It had no epitaph engraved (it had no)<br />
It had no epitaph engraved.<br />
<br />
Come on down & meet your maker<br />
Come on down & make the stand<br />
Come on down, come on down,<br />
Come on and make the stand<br />
<br />
Come on down & meet your maker<br />
Come on down & make the stand<br />
Come on down, come on down,<br />
Come on down, & we'll make the stand.
