Last night I dreamed I was looking down

On the planet Earth spinning round

and round

And as I cast my gaze about

I watched her lovely light go out

The light went out



And floating in the black of space

I was looking into God's own face

And in his hands he held this tiny Earth

He said "Well ain't it a shame what they've

done to her

After I'd shown them to the holy road

The holy road

After I'd shown them to the holy road

The holy road"



"Well, I laid a bounty in their hands

And only gave them ten commands

But they never learned their lessons very well

And they drove my garden straight to hell

That's when they fell off of the holy road

The holy road

That's when they fell off of the holy road

The holy road"



(And then he told me)

"Well the popes were frauds and the kings

were fools

And your presidents only dupes and tools

Of the money makers and the Chiefs of Staff

Who worshipped of that golden calf

They turned their backs upon the holy road

The holy road

They turned their backs upon the holy road

The holy road"



(And then I told him)

"Well, you made the sun and you made the sky

The things that crawl and the things that fly

And then you made the human race"

And he said

"Well, everybody makes mistakes

I thought they'd want to walk the holy road

The holy road

I thought they'd want to walk the holy road

The holy road"



Even though it was just a dream

It seemed as real as it could seem

And often dreams the truth forebodes

You got to get back children on the holy road

Get back children on the holy road

Get back children on the holy road

Get back children on the holy road

Holy road, holy road

Got to get back on the holy road

The holy road

Got to get back on the holy road

Holy road

Got to get back on the holy road

The holy road



On the holy road

The holy road

On the holy road people

On the holy road now

On the holy road now

Holy road

On the holy road children

On the holy road

Holy holy, holy road
