Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes - Under The Sun lyrics

rate me

(B. Bandiera/P. Scailfa)

Queen of sorrow ain't that your name

In a world of darkness with no one to blame

You watch from a distance and wonder how come

Some people walk so easily under the sun

Tell me darlin' what are you thinking of

When you give your loyalty to strangers

And betray the ones you love

Is it because of all those strangers

They help you go on hiding from

Your loss of faith to your rightful place

Under the sun

Once you walked so proud to a rebel drum

But all your victories were too hard won

And all the precious gifts of the land

Fell through your tired hands

Queen of sorrow ain't that your name

What's born in anger ends in shame

Trust me darlin' we shall overcome

Take my hand and face your rightful place

Under the sun
