Burlap To Cashmere - Build A Wall lyrics

rate me

[Verse 1]

She was driving through the night

Through that fortune roll of fame

She was looking for the man just the powder of the pain

The power of the song never caught it where it stands

She was looking, for the man, with the gun, and the hat

Drinking whiskey, in the rain, and the bible, in his hand

[Chorus 1]

Shade the light, down the song, close the shades, lock the door,

Burn the pages, of your life, as your body, hits the floor

And as you weep, you can hear, there's a an echo, of a call,

Through the valley, of the night, Nehemiah builds the wall

[Chorus 2]

Ooooh ooooh ooooh ooooh ooooh ooooh ooooh...

Ooooh ooooh ooooh ooooh ooooh ooooh ooooh...

Ooooh ooooh ooooh ooooh ooooh ooooh ooooh...

Oooh ooh, oooh ooh...

Hey! hey! hey! hey!

Hey! hey! hey! hey! hey!

[Verse 2]

I was living off the land, tryin' to get the job done

I was looking for the souls, that were burning in the sun

She was burnin' up the crowd, and was landin' on time

I said could you lose the man, who reveals, in a verse,

They were prophets, of the land,

When there's poison, in your mind

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2 - 2X]

Hey! hey! hey! hey!

Hey! hey! hey! hey! hey!

Yesterday's gone

Tomorrow's an illusion

[Guitar riff]

I'm fire, I am gold, I am river, I am sea,

I'm eternally the sound, that is screaming, to be free

[Chorus 1 - 2X]

[Chorus 2 - 2X]

Hey! hey! hey! hey! hey!

Hey! hey! hey! hey! hey!

Hey! hey! hey! hey!
