pierce pettis - rise from the ruins lyrics

Loading...

there ain’t n0body asks to be born
there ain’t n0body wishes to die
everybody whiles away the interim time
sworn to rise from the ruins by and by

the engines are droning with progress
the pistons are pounding out time
and it’s you and me caught
in this juggernaut jaunt
left to rise from the ruins down the line

we will roll like an old chevrolet
the road to ruin is something to see
hang on to the wheel
for the highway to h-ll
needs chauffeurs for the powers that be

go and tell all your friends and relations
go and say what ain’t easy to say
go and give them some hope that we might rock this boat
and rise from the ruins one fine day

did’ja ever try to carry water in a basket
did’ja ever try to carry tire in your hand
did’ja ever try to take on the weight of the everyday freight
til you find that you’re too weak to stand

why so pale and wan, fond lover
why so downcast and desperately sad
we can walk, we can talk
we ain’t yet pillars of salt
and we will rise from the ruins while we can

we will rise from the ruins while we can
