Songtext von Big Hollow Man

Chorus Hey yeah, walking in the valley of decision Hey yeah, reap all the wages of sin A big hollow man With a fistful of sham Came a-walking across the sea All leathery charms As he pinwheeled his arms And directed his gaze at me (He said) God will provide the way You read about it every day (I'm telling ya) All you gotta do is pray And furnish his house with silver (chorus) Liberty's daughter Well primed for the slaughter A space where her brains had been All ribbons and curls She's a good hearted girl Broken by what she had seen (She says) Daddy don't you go away Stay with me and we can play (I'm begging ya) Do it just like yesterday And I can go home to Jesus (chorus) (chorus) A regular Joe Who had nowhere to go A space where his home had been A bombing religion A blight on the region To fuel a pious dream (And they said) God will provide the way You read about it every day (I'm telling ya) All you gotta do is pray And furnish his house with silver (chorus)
