Teardrops rusting on a steel bar

Harmonica blues

Heartblood thick enough for pine tar

I've got a hole in my delta shoes

Grown men wither and they dry away

Their lives compromised

I've gotta hold on

Struggle through another day

To see the fire in my baby's eyes

Society's debt have been more than paid



In seven more days

I'll be home to you

And the walls will tumble down

That's separating us two

The Jericho mile and a river so wide

In seven more days

There will be no more divide



Bad dreams, cornerstone realities

Bears witness to shame

Hell's gate - a landscaped brutality

All material gain

But she's home praying on her hands
