Redemption Day (Album Version) - Johnny Cash[00:00:00]
I've wept for those who suffer long[00:00:12]
But how I weep for those who've gone[00:00:17]
Into rooms of grief and questioned wrong[00:00:22]
But keep on killing[00:00:26]
It's in the soul to feel such things[00:00:32]
But weak to watch without speaking[00:00:37]
Oh what mercy sadness brings[00:00:43]
If God be willing[00:00:47]
There is a train that's heading straight[00:00:52]
To heaven's gate to heaven's gate[00:00:57]
And on the way child and man [00:01:02]
And woman wait watch and wait[00:01:07]
For redemption day[00:01:15]
Fire rages in the streets[00:01:22]
And swallows everything it meets[00:01:27]
It's just an image often seen[00:01:32]
On television[00:01:36]
Come leaders come you men of great[00:01:42]
Let us hear you pontificate[00:01:47]
Your many virtues laid to waste[00:01:53]
And we aren't listening[00:01:57]
There is a train that's heading straight[00:02:02]
To heaven's gate to heaven's gate[00:02:07]
And on the way child and man [00:02:12]
And woman wait watch and wait[00:02:17]
For redemption day[00:02:25]
What do you have for us today[00:02:32]
Throw us a bone but save the plate[00:02:37]
On why we waited til so late[00:02:42]
Was there no oil to excavate[00:02:47]
No riches in trade for the fate[00:02:50]
Of every person who died in hate[00:02:53]
Throw us a bone you men of great[00:02:55]
There is a train that's heading straight[00:03:02]
To heaven's gate to heaven's gate[00:03:07]
And on the way child and man [00:03:12]
And woman wait watch and wait[00:03:17]
For redemption day[00:03:25]
It's buried in the countryside[00:03:37]
It's exploding in the shells at night[00:03:42]
It's everywhere a baby cries[00:03:47]
Freedom[00:03:52]
Freedom[00:03:57]
Freedom[00:04:02]
