Testo Defenders Of The Flag - Bruce Hornsby feat. The Range
Testo della canzone Defenders Of The Flag (Bruce Hornsby feat. The Range), tratta dall'album Scenes From The Southside
"It's coming any day now," said the captain
"It's coming any day now," cried the priest
The people in high places may defend you
But son you better hope they keep the peace
Can't you hear them calling?
Can't you see them shine?
The city halls are falling
The defenders drink their wine
And when the party's over
Their stomachs start to sag
Defenders, defenders of the flag
The congregation's waiting at the altar
They can't find the preacher anywhere
They found him with a new girl from the choir
Where they store the boxes of the book of prayer
If these guys are the good ones
I don't wanna know the bad
You wonder how it happened
They just picked it up from dad
Faded old glory
Hanging like a rag
Defenders, defenders of the flag
Oh, the flag is flying high over the courthouse
The wheels of justice never stood a chance
The judge is down at Charley's on his lawn chair
Checking out the picture show from France
Counterfeit whiskey in a dirty pillow bag
Threw the bottle home but they always miss the tag
Faded old glory
Hanging like a rag
Defenders, defenders of the flag
