The Road To Kingdom Come Lyrics

They're standing in your way

Tight restrictions, contradictions

More rules every day

Hold you down, they hold you down

You've got to get away

London's calling, no more stalling

Sleeping in your own doorway

Never stop to reason

Never question why

The word's out there and they don't care

Still you're gonna try

Hold you down, they hold you down

They'd never let you go

And now you've been, at last you've seen

And now I think you know

That you've been...

[Chorus:]

Running down the road to kingdom come

(Wouldn't believe me)

Never gave a thought

To all the people

That you're running from

Running down the road to kingdom come

(Who'd've believed it)

And all the time you only want a home

Your countrymen are peasantsStiff Little Fingers - The Road To Kingdom Come - http://motolyrics.com/stiff-little-fingers/the-road-to-kingdom-come-lyrics.html

You hate to have them near

You just can't seem to realise

You've got nothing to fear

Hold them down, you'll hold them down

You'll keep them in their place

It's hard to find a land so blind

It turns on its own race

And you're still...

[Chorus]

I wish to god

That someone here could help you

I wish someone could help you sort your fate

But you must do all the things you feel you have to

And when we realise it's too damn late

This world is too damn idle

It has to pay its way

Cut down the trees and clear the seas

Let's live for today

Hold it down, we'll hold it down

That preservation noise

Cause after all it won't be long

We'll hear nothing at all

And we're all.....

[Chorus repeat]
