Land Of Hope And Glory

From the clatter of a honky tonk To the quiet of the range Been thinking 'bout silence golden Golden silence change Burning nights get damper And only moon was cool And the steam of danger rose From a ripple - less darkened pool Came to America Stopped out in the west I ain't no shot-gun rider Alligator on my chest A hot-bed of indifference A seed-bed of so - so It's a push and shove I said Lord above What a way to go Chorus ~ Don't say that you love me Just say you might You keep holding on To things you think are right I said yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Land of hope and glory I said yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Land of hope and glory Seen foreign soldiers Beach - head army ducks Seen local farmers In their big red pick-up trucks Seen drug - store cowboys Who could not find the range Seen pet - boys in the city Who need a love so strange
