Testo Some Men Fall - Walt Wilkins
Testo della canzone Some Men Fall (Walt Wilkins), tratta dall'album Rivertown
Yesterday some guy in Atlanta climbed
One of those huge construction cranes
He said he had a gun and in the noonday
Sun he held the whole world at bay
The folks on the ground tried to talk him down all day
But in the soft Georgia summer twilight he jumped anyway
Some men fall and some fly
Some men stumble and some shine
In the grander scheme sometimes it seems there ain't no scheme at all
Some men fall and some fly
And yesterday the guy that played Archie Bunker, well he died too
And so did John Lee Hooker, one of the last real badasses of the blues
Now you know that they both went
Through all the same trials that we do
But they kept right on walking like there was something that they knew
Some men fall and some fly
Some men stumble and some shine
In the grander scheme sometimes it seems there ain't no scheme at all
Some men fall and some fly
Last night after the longest day of the year a baby boy was born
To a world that can be as cold and mean as it can be safe and warm
And hopefully his family will clothe him and feed him
And give him every hope and prayer cause
Little brother, you're gonna need 'em
Some men fall and some fly
Some men stumble and some shine
In the grander scheme sometimes it seems there ain't no scheme at all
Some men fall and some fly
