Walters Jamie - Neutral Ground lyrics

rate me

I heard a shot last night

It woke me up from my sleep

There's no such thing as friendly fire

Oh, Mama, don't turn on the lights

Oh, Papa, get away from the window

You never know which way the angel's comin' in

Chorus:

And the water's gonna roll, roll up the dirty streets

And the wind's gonna blow out the lights

Rock this world to sleep

I don't wanna be left behind

And get caught between the lines drawn across this town

Runnin' out of neutral ground

Somebody's waitin' for my brother

To them he's just another number

To me he never did no wrong

My sister won't be pulled in

Don't make the same mistake again

There's just no way to even up this score

Chorus

I can't be no judge, I can't be no jury

I don't even know what's right or wrong

I stand between the walls

These forces are bigger than life

Seems like they'll never get enough

Chorus
