Mist upon the hill can remember murder,
Mist upon the hill that once flowed with blood,
Helped to cover up an approaching army,
Hid the killing lust in the eyes of men.
Sitting by the fire was a sentry sleeping,
Rolled up in their beds were children that play,
Unsuspecting what was to fall upon them,
None of them would see the dawn next day.
Bloody were the blades that fell on children,
Hate the blinding light tried to kill a name,
The mountains only know all the souls that died there,
Glen Coe from that day can recall the shame.
The quiet of the night never gave them warning,
The silence of the hills wouldn't let them know,
They'd never rise again on a mist filled morning,
Never see the sunrise above Glen Coe.
The bars are crowded with wasted youth
You just went, you didn't know the truth
You don't know that kid when you look back
You remember the music, paint it black
You had a brother in the movement and he burned his card
He's got a job in the white house, ain't life hard
You came back a hero on a stolen horse
You say you don't fit in, you can't stay the course
I may be right, don't care if I'm wrong
It's a veteran's song
I may be right, don't care if I'm wrong
It's a veteran's song
The band paraded playing "Oh gung ho""
Your country needs you, you've got to go
When you came over they said "Soldier go back"
When you came home they put you on the rack
Between agent orange and the jungle and fear
You're just surviving to get out of here
You smoke some more herb and you keep your head down
Could be your number is on the next round.
Now lay me down on market street
I'm lookin' for some spare change
A coast guard ship has been lookin' for me
And I might have to change my name
Here comes Uncle Sam again with the same old bag of beans
The local chief's on the radio
He's got some hungry mouths to feed
Goin back to Alcatraz
Lay me back down here on the highway
One hundred and one ways to go
Solitary is so confinin'
To the legend of Geronimo
Oh I know I could bring the rain
Used to dance for ABC
And all the braves down on death row
Are pretending to be free
Back home in Alcatraz
In the land of the great white father
My American blood runs cold
I left my home in Oklahoma
To the Everglades I go
It's just the wings on the silver cars
And I'm allowed to plow a field
It's not the life for a nineteen seventy
(What's an)Indian boy to do
Goin' back to Alcatraz
Lay me down on market street
I'm lookin for some spare change
A coast guard ship has been lookin' for me
Might have to change my name
Here comes Uncle Sam again with the same old bag of beans
Local chief's on the radio
He's got some hungry mouths to feed
Goin' back to Alcatraz
Here comes Uncle Sam again with the same old bag of beans
Local chief's on the radio
He's got some hungry mouths to feed
Goin back to Alcatraz
Goin back to Alcatraz
Goin back to Alcatraz
Goin back to Alcatraz
Goin back to Alcatraz
Goin back to Alcatraz
Goin back to Alcatraz
Goin back to Alcatraz
I know you
You always rode so tall in the saddle
You are the answer
But I know that you are only causin' trouble
Take all you want, leave me the rest behind
You're a user
A winnin' no new friends, just make one small step
You're a user
You never came to anyone's call
Spent all your life head on the wall
While you're up there, there's only one way to fall
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Will never put you together again
You still got your chances
The one thing the whole world loves is a winner
You can't walk on water
With your heat the ice you're on is gettin' thinner
You used to be so wise
But you are fooled by your own lies
And I see right through your disguise
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Will never put you together again
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Will never put you together again.
Presidents and peace spreading poets
Getting gunned down in the streets
Shown to us on our prime time screens
For our tea time treat
Lunatics we voted for denying
Everything that they swore
We sit around and shout about it
But we don't do nothing more
Drafted for police action
But they decided on a war
Telling us we were saving mankind
Why don't you ask Cambodia
We were solving it with marijuana
We were sure that we could
Always leavin' it to someone else
Just knocking on wood
We're goin' back to the trenches
We're goin' back to the trenches
Well you say you got a say so
But you're knowin' that it ain't so
And you turn away
You think it's safer to ignore it
But the score is your children have to pay
Everybody wants better
Everybody talkin' 'bout it
Are we wastin' time
Gotta stop only lookin', talkin'
We're all guilty of the crime
We're goin' back to the trenches
We're goin' back to the trenches
We gotta move, we got everything to lose
We gotta move, we got everything to lose
We're all headed for the front
But everybody's fightin' for a good address
It's time we made the changes
Or we'll be burnin' with the rest
We just ain't communicatin' and I don't
Mean conversations on the telephone
When Nero starts to fiddle this time
There's a lot more gonna burn than Rome
we're goin' back to the trenches
we're goin' back to the trenches
we're goin' back to the trenches
we're goin' back to the trenches
You didn't listen when you went to school
You dressed like a clown and you behaved like a fool
But now your education is about to begin
The difference between love and the mess that you're in
You figured you're cool I'll bend all the rules
I'll get them going red flags to a bull
It's not like the movies no duel in the sun
You need the answer to get your love done
Now you're going back to school
Now you're going to learn the rules
Now you're going back, you're going back
You're going back to school
You know the business or so you believe
You set all your sights but you aim to deceive
You think you'll hit the target every time that you fire
You think you know the difference between love and desire
But someone's waiting to turn you around
She'll shoot you down and put your feet on the ground
It's not like dreamin' you can make mistakes
A lesson learned is not so easy to take
Now you're going back to school
Now you're going to learn the rules
Now you're going back, you're going back
You're going back to school
Now you're going back to school
Now you're going to learn the rules
Now you're going back, you're going back
You're going back to school
You're doin' numbers but you don't keep the score
They're scratchin' the surface but they don't
Reach the core
You only bought the ticket cause the price was all in
You'll never reach the heart until you,ve broken the skin
You're busy running but you never relax
Live now pay later including the tax
But now your education is about to begin
Forget about the stories and the places you've been
Now you're going back to school
Now you're going to learn the rules
Now you're going back, you're going back
You're going back to school
Back to school back to school
The backroom boys are playin' real hard
There's a lot of money rollin' on the next card
Some are goin' up some are goin' down
Some'll never make it to the next round
Stone me it don't come free
You gotta be a winner
If you wanna be a backroom boy
They got--a room full of women
A table full of booze
Gettin' meaner with the dealer--'cause he can't lose
Someone shouts out, it's a goddamn shame
The dealer's gettin' meaner with the cocaine
*Stone me it don't come free
Gotta be a winner
If you wanna be a backroom boy
Can't stay home get uptown
Get your ear to the ground
If you wanna be a backroom boy
** Up all night, playin' it right
Backroom boys
Look in your eye, never say die
Backroom boys
** The backroom boys are all the same
Even take your money when they play games
Take you when you're up, kick you when you're down
You'll always be a loser in their town
Born under the wrong sign
Trouble is my middle name
Born under the wrong sign
Every day turns out the same
But it's so hard to see the light
When you're born under the wrong sign
Wrong sign
Wrong sign
Cast out'a the wrong mold
Sorry is no way that I feel
Cast out'a the wrong mold
Singin' my blues is for real
But it's so hard to see the light
When you're born under the wrong sign
Born under the wrong sign
Trouble is my middle name
Born under the wrong
Every day turns out the same
But it's so hard to see the light
When you're born under the wrong sign
Wrong sign
Wrong sign
Reach out and touch my fire
I'll make you know you're alive
Sweet love move in slow
Stretching out like a wire
I'll take you right to the top
Girl as low as you can drop
You'll thank the Lord up above
Woman you'll know you've been loved
I was born to love
I was born to love
Sure as there's stars up above
I was born to love
Born to love you
Slow down now don't you run
For you there's just no way out
Made up my mind, not wastin' time
You're what I'm thinkin' about
I got myself on your case
You just can't keep up the pace
But you'll thank the Lord up above
Woman you'll know you've been loved
I was born to love
I was born to love
Sure as there's stars up above
I was born to love
Born to love you
Hey girl don't be a fool
Your bridges all have been crossed
You've got it wrong, my love is strong
So don't go countin' the cost
I'm only thinkin' of you
Give me just an hour or two
Then you'll thank the Lord up above
Woman you'll know you've been loved
I was born to love
I was born to love
Sure, sure as there's stars up above
I was born to love
Born to love you
I was born to love you
