Lyrics

And when there's only one mountain to climb
Can't take the mountain 'cause the mountain is mine
As long as we hang on just one more day
That is something they can't take away
You lead your children down suicide row
Now all your children gotta reap what you sow
Self-righteous suckers with your damn virtues
You try and take me, I'll take you
(Here we go) here we go, down the glory road
(Down and out) we're down and out
Down the glory road
We come from China, we come from Japan
We come from Sweden and the Netherlands
Never surrender 'til that final dawn
Never surrender 'til that dark cloud's gone
I hear the thunder from the distant shore
Some crazy general trying to keep the score
We built this tower here in Babylon
Just one big flash and it will all be gone
(Here we go) here we go, down the glory road
(Down and out) we're down and out
Down the glory road, hey-ya-hey-ya
Some take their problems to the Wailing Wall
Even though their faith may stumble and fall
Muslims and Hindus and the Protestant
Can't understand why we can't all be friends
Last night I had a strange, strange dream
There was no politics, just you and me
Too much deceit from politician's lies
Can't you see that I am on your side?
(Here we go) here we go, down the glory road
(Down and out) we're down and out
Down the glory road
(Here we go) here we go, down the glory road
(Down and out) we're down and out
Down the glory road, hey-yeah, hey-yeah
Thank you very much, you've been very nice
