Hey, now the well run dry Pages of the book on fire Read the writing On the wall Hoedown, say showdown Everywhere you look They're fighting Hear the call And you know it's getting stronger It can't last very much longer Turn to stone Well there's a change in the wind You know the signs don't lie Such a strange feeling and I don't know why It's takin' such a long time Backyard people and they work all day Tired of the speeches And the way the reasons they keep changin' Just to make the words rhyme And you know its getting stronger Can't fake 'em out much longer Turn to stone And you know it's getting stronger, It can't last very much longer Turn to stone
