John Denver - The Chosen Ones Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the different directions album, and has also been released on the john denver collection - rocky mountain high album.
  • I heard how all the lights went out in memphis
  • On the death night anniversary of the king
  • The pretenders talking dirty in the palace
  • But it doesnt have that old familiar ring
  • I see theres been some changes in the valley
  • All the renegades have finally settled down
  • Now they worship in the temples of their rivals
  • And desecrate the holy heart of town
  • Cant you hear all those sweet voices singing
  • Takin care of the chosen ones
  • Cant you hear all those mission bells ringin
  • Say a prayer for the chosen ones
  • I read theyre pourin oil on troubled waters
  • Yet they cast a giant shadow on the land
  • Lets spend another night across the border
  • And bury all our secrets in the sand
  • Now they claim there is a message in the bible
  • They swear there is no master and his slave
  • But the futures lookin dim for the lonesome cowboy
  • When the hand that rocks that cradle digs the grave
  • Words by nick smith, music by and joe camilleri
