1600 horses pulled a ship out of the ocean
Could've been a vintage clipper or that yellow submarine
Sailors all were singing songs of love and devotion
Saxophones were blowing a love supreme
Seems that they were searching for a higher education
Tried to heal an ailing nation but they brought it to its knees
They slapped each others shoulders and exclaimed congratulations
But they lost a generation never to be seen
Never to be seen
One thing baby that I can say
We'll be there on judgment day
One thing baby I have learned
With or without you the world will turn
Yes it will
Well I got me a little princess
She's strung out again in Paris
Staring at the twilight
Can you hear the angels sing
Buried her with sealant wax in a giant scarlet coffin
And I filled it up with poetry, and the sons of kings
Alright
Oh baby I treated you like a queen
One thing baby I can say
We'll be there on judgment day
One thing baby I have learned
With or without you the world will turn
You know it's true
Oh yea the world will turn
Alright
Somewhere in the Carolinas
On the streets of this old beach town
I spied a young cowboy
And he played me a song
He said come sit beside me
I'll tell you my sad story
I'm a dying young cowboy
You know I've done wrong
I know I've done wrong
One thing baby that I can say
We'll be there on judgment day
One thing baby I have learned
With or without you the world will turn
One thing baby that I can say
We'll be there on judgment day
One thing baby I have learned
With or without you the world will turn
One thing baby that we can say
We'll be there on judgment day
One thing baby I have learned
With or without you the world will turn
You know it's true
Without me, without you
Oh Baby the world will turn
Oh yea the world will turn
