《The Promised Land》歌词

[00:00:03] The Promised Land - J.T. Taylor

[00:00:04] Written by：Paul Gordon

[00:00:40] We've been searchin' up and down this weary country

[00:00:49] Worn out looking for ways that we can feed our hungry

[00:00:58] We were told the streets were paved with gold

[00:01:01] Paved gold

[00:01:02] And the future would be ours to hold

[00:01:07] But we've seen the dream get bought and sold

[00:01:10] In the promised land

[00:01:14] We don't wanna hear it anymore

[00:01:18] 'Cause the common man

[00:01:23] Has heard all these promises before

[00:01:26] Yeaaaaah

[00:01:27] In the promised land

[00:01:32] We try to be faithful to our true convictions

[00:01:41] But there's so much danger in the heart's addictions

[00:01:50] We were told that we could have it all

[00:01:53] Have it all

[00:01:54] Now our backs are up against the wall

[00:01:58] As we stand looking at the rise and fall

[00:02:02] In the promised land

[00:02:06] We don't wanna hear it anymore

[00:02:10] 'Cause the common man

[00:02:15] Has heard all these promises before

[00:02:19] Smoldering ice

[00:02:22] Concrete and steel

[00:02:24] Rebuild the dream that no longer seems real

[00:02:27] Tell me where did we go wrong

[00:02:30] And what will it take

[00:02:32] To heal this condition

[00:02:34] Before it's too late now

[00:02:54] In the promised land

[00:02:58] We don't wanna hear it anymore

[00:03:02] 'Cause the common man

[00:03:06] Has heard all these promises before

[00:03:11] In the promised land

[00:03:15] We don't wanna hear it anymore

[00:03:20] 'Cause the common man

[00:03:24] He's heard all these promises before

[00:03:28] In the promised land

[00:03:37] 'Cause the common man

[00:03:41] He's heard it all

[00:03:43] No more promises

[00:03:46] In the promised land

[00:03:52] We don't wanna hear it anymore

[00:03:54] 'Cause the common man

[00:03:56] Looking for ways we can feed the hungry

[00:04:01] And what will it take

[00:04:03] In the promised land
