Bruce Hornsby - Barren Ground Lyrics

Align:    
  • B. r. hornsby/john hornsby
  • There were people living in a green valley
  • Found a way to make a lot of money
  • Made the green turn gradually gray
  • They figured they could do whatever they wanted
  • Everything would be alright
  • But scars dont always heal away
  • And the sons and the daughters got diamonds and gold
  • But they were given a land where
  • Strong roots never take hold
  • Good seed dont grow
  • On the barren ground
  • Good things dont come along
  • As you just sit dreaming on
  • Good seed dont grow
  • On the barren ground
  • Say everything fades away
  • There you are still around
  • Whatll you do where will you go
  • Ther was a ship along the coast
  • Carrying a load of black money
  • In the sound near the northern lights
  • When the ship set sail
  • The crew looked for guidance
  • In the bottom of an empty glass
  • Then the captain said pour me another rye
  • Then the water turned black as that cold winters night
  • Good seed dont grow
  • On the barren ground
  • Good things dont come along
  • As you just sit dreaming on
  • Good seed dont grow
  • On the barren ground
  • Say everything fades away
  • There you are still around
  • Whatll you do where will you go
