Ain’t Long For The Day

Hey jessie - where are you tonight
heard about a thing that's - drivin’ you wild
looks like the big wheel - is here to stay
how come - it's going down this way

Heard about a horse - and all the king's men
been dragging you down - heat street again
sure getting tough - to believe anything you say
how come - it's going down this way

Chorus:
It ain't long for the day
It ain't long for the day
It ain't long
It ain't long
It ain't long for the day

Heard about a barricade - all over the town
heard about a place - upon temple mount
you're breaking promise - at the break of every day
how come - it's going down this way

[chorus:]

Heard about a deal - between man and god
heard about what is - and what is not
sure is a shame - the things some people say
how come - it's going down this way

[chorus:]

Heard about a way - to get out of this
talk about a jewel - what is yours and what is his
does anybody remember - was it ever straight
how come - it's going down this way

[chorus:]
