Robbie Robertson - Showdown At Big Sky Lyrics
Soldier of fortuneHe's a man of warJust can't rememberWhat he's fighting forStart a revolutionRight before your eyesWhen you hear the big bangDon't be surprisedShowdown at big skyDarkness at high noonShowdown at big skyThat day may be soonPeople, peopleCan you hear the soundFrom every village and every townLet the bells ring outHear the bells ring inLet the bells ring outKeep them ringing, ringingCan't predict the futureCan't forget the pastFeels like any momentCould be the lastAll you believersStanding inside this roomCan't you see it comingShooting out across the moonSave this place In the valley of tears By the river of timeFrom weapons race In the Book of David In the holy nightWhen it's laid to waste It will be written By the children of EdenI said save this place And the Holy GhostShowdown at big skyDarkness at high noonShowdown at big skyThat day may be soonPeople, peopleCan you hear the soundFrom every village and every townLet the bells ring outHear the bells ring inLet the bells ring outKeep them ringing, ringingSave this place In the valley of tears By the river of timeFrom weapons race In the Book of David In the holy nightWhen it's laid to waste It will be written By the children of EdenI said save this place And the Holy GhostShowdown at big skyDarkness at high noonKiss tomorrow goodbyeThat day could be soonGive us strengthGive us wisdomAnd give us tomorrowLet the bells ring outHear the bells ring inLet the bells ring outKeep them ringing, ringingLet the bells ring outHear the bells ring inLet the bells ring outKeep them ringing, ringing
