Sweet Bird of Truth

Heaven sent, hell bent Over the mountain tops we go Just like all the other GI Joes EE-AY-EE-AY adios! Arabia, Arabia, Arabia, Arabia (repeating) Six o'clock in the morning And I'm the last person in this plane still awake You know I can almost smell The blood washing 'gainst the shores Of this land that can't forget its past Oh, the wind that carries this plane Is the wind of change Heaven sent and hell bent Over the mountain tops we go Just like all the other GI Joes EE-AY-EE-AY adios! Across the beaches and cranes Rivers and trains All the money I've made Bodies I've maimed Time was when I seemed to know Just like any other GI Joe Should I cry like a baby Die like a man While all the planet's little wars Start joining hands Oh, what a heaven -- what a hell You know there's nothing could be done in this whole wide world This is your captain calling With an urgent warning We're above the Gulf of Arabia Our altitude is falling And I can't hold her up There's no time for thinking All hands on deck This bird is sinking Arabia, Arabia (repeating) I don't know what's wrong or right I'm just a regular guy With bottled up insides I ain't ever been to church Or believed in Jesus Christ But I'm praying that God's with you When you die This is your captain calling With an urgent warning We're above the Gulf of Arabia Our altitude is falling And I can't hold her up There's no time for thinking All hands on deck This bird is sinking This is your captain calling With an urgent warning We're above the Gulf of Arabia Our altitude is falling And I can't hold her up There's no time for thinking All hands on deck This bird is sinking Is sinking, is sinking (repeating)
