Letra de The Great Correction - Joan Baez
Letra de canci�n de The Great Correction de Joan Baez lyrics
Down on the corner of ruin and grace
I'm growin' weary of the human race
I hold my lamp up in everyone's face
Lookin' for an honest man
Everyone tied to the turnin' wheel
Everyone's hidin' from the things they feel
The truth's so hard it just don't seem real
The shadow across this land
People 'round here don't know what it means
To suffer at the hands of the American dreams
They turn their backs on the grisly scenes
Traced to the privileged sons
Well, they got their God and they got their guns
They got their armies and the chosen ones
But we'll all be burnin' in the same big sun
When the great correction comes
Down through the ages lovers of the mystery
Been sayin' people let your love light shine

Poets and sages all through history
Say the light burns brightest in the darkest times
It's the bitter end we've come down to
The eye of the needle we gonna get through
But the end could be the start of something new
When the great correction comes
Down to the wire runnin' out of time
Still got hope in this heart of mine
The future waits on the horizon line
For our daughters and our sons
I don't know where this train is bound
Whole lotta people tryin' to turn it around
Gonna shout till the walls come tumblin' down
And the great correction comes
Don't let me down
When the great correction comes
I'm growin' weary of the human race
I hold my lamp up in everyone's face
Lookin' for an honest man
Everyone tied to the turnin' wheel
Everyone's hidin' from the things they feel
The truth's so hard it just don't seem real
The shadow across this land
People 'round here don't know what it means
To suffer at the hands of the American dreams
They turn their backs on the grisly scenes
Traced to the privileged sons
Well, they got their God and they got their guns
They got their armies and the chosen ones
But we'll all be burnin' in the same big sun
When the great correction comes
Down through the ages lovers of the mystery
Been sayin' people let your love light shine
