I can't last very much longer
And you know it's gettin' stronger
It's takin' such a long time
Such a strange feelin' and I don't know why
That the reasons keep changin'
Tired of the speeches and the way
Turn to stone
Hear the call
And you know it's gettin' stronger
Everywhere you look, we're fighting
Just to make the words rhyme
Turn to stone
Read the writing on the wall
Can't make 'em run much longer
And you know it's gettin' stronger
You know the signs don't lie
Hoe down, it's a show-down
Well, there's a change in the wind
Backyard people and they work all day
Can't last very much longer
