Sun Go Down Songtext
von Deadman

We take no prisoners
When it rains it pours

Give me time, give me sweet by and by
And I know we can make it through it
When they say that it′s not true
When I say that I love you
It's alright, I′ll be standing by your side
When they say that it's not so
He won't be with you when you grow old
Just wait, we can prove ′em wrong
So give ′em time and they'll come around

You got to stay alive when the sun goes down
To see the glory of a city that′s open wide
'Cause tonight darlin′ you will be my bride

Well the people up in Detroit
They get their soul from Marvin Gaye
And the people down in California


Get their sunshine in L.A
From the bluegrass to the blues
Elvis Presley's blue suede shoes
Singing sweet Mississippi blues
Crooning slide guitar
Down in Texas it′s alright
With its hot tequila nights
Selling romance, riding into Mexico

Give 'em time and they'll come around
You got to stay alive when the sun goes down
To see the glory of a city that′s open wide
′Cause tonight darlin' you will be my bride

Well the preachers down in Greenwood
They stomp the gospel out on hardwood floors
And the gamblers lost in Vegas
They don′t believe it anymore
Well they're trying just to behave
Hearing Robert Johnson from the grave
Running scared with the hellhounds still on his trail
Praying Jacob in the field
To the angels straight he yields
Feel his spirit moving and it′s hard to fail

Give 'em time and they′ll come around
You got to stay alive when the sun goes down
To see the glory of a city that's open wide
'Cause tonight darlin′ you will be my bride
