Ain't Long For The Day Songtext
von Dave Sharp

Hey Jesse, where are you tonight?
Heard about a thing that′s driving you wild
Looks like the big wheel is here to stay
How come it's going down this way?

Heard about a hoss, all the king′s men
Been dragging you down Heath Street again
Sure getting tough to believe anything you say
How come it's going down this way?

It ain't long for the day
It ain′t long for the day
It ain′t long, it ain't long
It ain′t long for the day

Heard about a barricade all over the town
Heard about a place on Temple Mount
You're breaking a promise at the break of day
How come it′s going down this way?


Heard about a deal between man and God
Heard about what is and what is not
Sure is a shame, the things people say
How come it's going down this way?

It ain′t long for the day
It ain't long for the day
It ain't long, it ain′t long
It ain′t long for the day
It ain't long

Heard about a way to get out of this
Talk about a duel, what is yours, what is his
Does anybody remember, was it ever straight?
How come it′s going down this way?

It ain't long for the day
It ain′t long for the day
It ain't long, it ain′t long
It ain't long for the day

It ain't long for the day
It ain′t long, it ain′t long
It ain't long for the day
It ain′t long for the day
It ain't long, it ain′t long
It ain't long for the day
