In the howling wind,comes a stinging rain You see it driveing nails into the souls on the tree of pain From these fireflies, a red, orange glow You see the face of fear running scared in the vally below Chorus: Bullet the blue sky In the locust wind comes a rattle and hum Where Jacob wrestled the angel and the angel was over come You plant this demon seed; you raise a flower of fire You see them burning crosses; you see the flames higher and higher (Chorus) Suit and tie comes up to me His face red like a rose on a thorn bush With all the colors of a royal flush And he's peeling off those dollar bills, slapping them down One hundred, two hundred And I can see those fighter planes, I can see those fighter planes Across the mud huts the children sleep Through the alleys of a quiet city streets You take the staircase to the first floor Turn the key and slowly unlock the door A man brethes into a saxophone Through the walls you hear the city groan Outside it's America, outside it's America (Chorus)
