Текст песни
Well, I heard you singing
What were they singing when the people got quiet?
Were you singing "Stand and Deliver"?
Or was it "Down by the River"?
Were you singing a fine old tune like "God and Glory"?
Laying it down with grace and power
'Long about the midnight hour?
Well, I heard the people all singing
Like they'd never sung before
All over the country
Now who could help but stand beside you?
"Hello, hello, is there anybody here?
My knuckles are sore from rapping all day"
Said, "Give me one more chance
And I'll do it for you if I had your way
If I had your way, if I had your way"
What do I know? What do I see?
Don't know nothing but the name of the game
It's a high card draw with everything wild
Bet your life like anyone's child
What else would you want to do?
Well, I heard the people all singing
Like they'd never sung before
Singing in key and strumming
Everything heard from you
Hello, hello, hello, hello, goodbye
Looking back across the years
Other matters disappear
In the moment I can hear
Your voice loud and clear
Hello, hello, hello, hello, goodbye, goodbye
I heard you singing
Like one last song in the middle of the night
Were you singing in tongues of fire
Or was it notes of anger?
Were you singing a fine old tune like "Love Me Only"?
Were you caught between the curtains
Thinking this was too uncertain?
Remember the people singing
Like they'd never sung before
All over the country
Don't you love the way they love you?
Well, ain't no knocker on the last big door
Just push on the panel, walk on in
Hello, hello, anybody here?
But a two-bit high and a busted mirror
Hello, hello, anybody here?
My knuckles are sore from rapping all day
