Текст песни How Long

Someone asked a question once Of martin luther king How long do you stay the course And dream the dream When it seems evil's won And greed is on the throne And you feel like the silenced voice In the wilderness all alone How long? How long? He said: Till justice rolls down like water Till justice rolls down like water Justice rolls down like water And righteousness flows like a mighty stream A little boy about ten years old Sits watching his TV He's alone most every night Till two or three Though his mama works two jobs She still can't make ends meet He sees the fat cats lie and steal But they always go scot-free He says: How long, how long Till that justice rolls down like water Till justice rolls down like water Till justice rolls down like water And the righteousness starts flowing like a mighty stream? Power, greed, and profit They will never feed the soul These three shovels have dug us A deep dark hole Compassion, understanding And living one for all And all for one is what it's gonna take for us To break this fall Oh how long? How long? He said: Till justice rolls down like water Till justice rolls down like water Till justice rolls down like water And the righteousness starts flowing like a mighty stream
