Oh uh
I see fingers, hands and shades of faces
Reachin' up and not quite touchin' the promised land
I hear pleas and prayers and a desperate whisper sayin
Oh,Lord, please give us a helpin' hand
Yeah yeah
Way down in the background
I can see frustrated souls of cities burnin
And all across the water,baby
I see weapons barkin' out the sting of d**h
And up in the clouds I can imagine UFOs jumpin' themselves
Laughin' they sayin'
Those people so uptight, they sure know how to make a mess
Back in the saloon my tears mix and mildew with my drink
I can't really tell my feet from the sawdust on the floor
But as far as I know, they may even try to wrap me up in cellophane and try and sell me
Brother sell me, and don't worry about lookin at the score
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
