We can take the long road We got nothing to hurry on for We have seen the rising Through the mist of mourning I have learned the lesson, it's so clear We can take the back road and still get there Friends & family all around One by one they leave or they're laying down From the forest to the field On our knees we all yield From the back room to the backyard In our house of cards Humble is as humble gets Stumble in the rest When the rains fall we duck & hide Climb to the hill top when waters rise We ferry our friends, ferry our foes Bang a drum to bring them home From the forest to the field On our knees we all yield From the back room to the backyard In our house of cards Humble is as humble gets Stumble in the rest We can take the long road
