I was born alone I toil day and night But the ancients tell I'll ring the bell And end this hell So I'll take up the fight To break the chains of men To free the cows again Keepers of the beef Keepers of the beef Love the beef Keepers of the beef Keepers of the beef Love the beef Keepers of the beef Keepers of the beef Love the beef Keepers of the beef Keepers of the beef Love the beef Keepers of the beef Keepers of the beef Love the beef Keepers of the beef Keepers of the beef Love the beef Keepers of the beef Keepers of the beef Love the beef Keepers of the beef Keepers of the beef Love the beef Keepers of the beef Keepers of the beef Love the beef Keepers of the beef Keepers of the beef Love the beef Keepers of the beef Keepers of the beef Love the beef Keepers of the beef Keepers of the beef Love the beef Now I've seen the truth This man they call a lord Rapes the land With his two hands And red hot brands So I take up the sword To take the tyrant down To break the curly crown And I'm leaving here On a journey 'cross the land To a distant mountaintop Gonna prove this god's a man And I'm leaving home 'Cause there's nothing here for me In the mountain's heart I'll fulfill my destiny And I'm leaving town On a journey to the west On that distant mountaintop Put the stories to the test As I climb that peak Tired, broken, sore, and bruised As I near the end The winds of change are blowing through Now I find myself About to touch that hidden soul He can feel the end Knows his death lies in that toll Gonna find that bell Gonna bring him to his knees Gonna strike that bell Let the ringing set me free In the smoke in the fire lies the meat of our desire In the belly of the beast lives the savor that we seek In the ash and the flame will you call us by our name And our souls yours to keep, give us, lord our daily beef In the smoke in the fire lies the meat of our desire In the belly of the beast lives the savor that we seek In the ash and the flame will you call us by our name And our souls yours to keep, give us, lord our daily beef In the smoke in the fire lies the meat of our desire In the belly of the beast lives the savor that we seek In the ash and the flame will you call us by our name And our souls yours to keep, give us, lord our daily beef
