Lyrics
And when there's only one mountain to climb
Can't take the mountain 'cause the mountain is mine
As long as we hang on just one more day
That is somethin' they can't take away
You lead your children down Suicide Road
And all your children gotta reap what you sow
Self-righteous suckers with your damn virtues
You try and take me, I'll take you
(Here we go) Here we go
Down the glory road
(Down and out) Down and out
(Down the glory road) Down the glory road
We come from China, we come from Japan
We come from Sweden and the Netherlands
Never surrender 'til that final dawn
Never surrender 'til that dark cloud's gone
I hear the thunder from the distant shore
Some crazy general tryin' to keep the score
We built this tower here in Babylon
Just one big flash and it will all be gone
(Here we go) Here we go
(Down the glory road) Down the glory road
(Down and out) Down and out
(Down the glory road) On the glory road
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Some take their problems to the Wailing Wall
Even though their faith may stumble and fall
Muslims and Hindus and the Protestant
Can't understand why we can't all be friends
Last night I had a strange, strange dream
There was no politics, just you and me
Too much deceit from politicians' lies
Can't you see that I am on your side?
(Here we go) Here we go
(Down the glory road) Down the glory road
(Down and out) Down and out
(Down the glory road) On the glory road
(Here we go) Here we go
(Down the glory road) On the glory road
(Down and out) Down and out
(Down the glory road) On the glory road
That's how it goes
On the glory road
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Down the glory road
You gotta reap what you sow
Down the glory road
