lyric help (name that song!)

Post by werldhed »

Google is no help.
Does anybody recognize this song?
It's got a sort of twangy, banjoey "Rawhide" sound to it. I think it's a semi-current song, since it seems to be in direct reference to Bush, but I guess it could be about anybody.

I'm trying to get the ID3 info for it and I'm at a loss. Anybody know?
I turned around in time to see the clouds fade
Running back will only make them stay
For now I run, don't know why I didn't roll
Tried to pay back everything i have ever owed

And when your money runs will you buy a friend?
When your guns don't fire, will that be the end?
No land left to burn, and nowhere left to run
Where then can we stand, when it's all said and done?

I hear the thunder roll, I feel the cold winds blow
You won't find me there because I won't go back again
While you're on a smokey road I'll be out in the sun
Where the trees still grow, where the cowboy won.

Will you take from our schools, to build a bigger bomb?
You tell us fiery lies about the course we're on
And you'll kill all the world, and you'll reverse the sun
Which would you sell first: your soul or your gun?

Damn, they're from my neck of the woods, too. I can't believe I didn't think about them.
Thanks. :icon14:

(I can't find a sample of this particular song, though. Do you happen to know the title?)

Unfortunately, I don't know the name of the song. I just googled a couple lines and found the band name.

Checked out their myspace site and listened to a couple songs, though. Pretty good stuff. Let me know if you uh...come across any of their stuff. They appear to be pretty small so far, so I'm not sure if I could find any of their stuff around here.
