it ain't long for the day Songtext / Lyric

Hey Jessie
Where are you tonight
Heard about a thing
That`s
Driving you wild
Looks like the big wheel
Is here to stay
How come
It`s going down this way

Heard about a horse
All the king`s men
Been dragging you down
Each street again
Sure getting though
To believe anything you say
How come
It`s going down this way

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
On Temple Mount
You`re breaking promise
At the break of day
How come
It`s going down this way

Heard about a deal
Between man and God
Heard about what is
And what is not
Sure is a shame
The things people say
How come
It`s going down this way

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
It ain`t long

Heard about a way
To get out of this
Talk about a dual
What is yours
What is his
Does anybody remember
Was it straight
How come
It`s going down this way

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
