Whirl Away - Patti Smith[00:00:00]
Hello friend I've come a-calling[00:00:18]
Passively stationed[00:00:22]
Active patrol[00:00:25]
Sliding in at high noon like some reluctant sheriff[00:00:27]
Not want to get involved in it all[00:00:31]
Who stands guard for each other[00:00:36]
Why must we guard anything at all[00:00:40]
Anything at all[00:00:48]
From the earth's four corners the people are calling[00:00:58]
Forming equations but the questions are hard[00:01:03]
All men are brothers killing each other[00:01:07]
And mother earth is wringing in wonder[00:01:12]
Who stands guard for each other[00:01:16]
Why must we guard anything at all[00:01:21]
Anything at all[00:01:29]
Whirl away now[00:01:33]
Whirl away now[00:01:38]
Whirl away now[00:01:42]
Whirl away[00:01:47]
There's a cross on the road[00:01:56]
There's a great mill turning[00:01:58]
Some seeking answers[00:02:01]
Some born to dancers[00:02:03]
You can hold on the blade and turn around forever[00:02:05]
Be flung into space into another kind of grace[00:02:10]
Who stands guard for each other[00:02:14]
Why must we guard anything at all[00:02:19]
Anything at all[00:02:27]
Whirl away now[00:02:31]
Whirl away now[00:02:36]
Whirl away now[00:02:40]
Whirl away[00:02:45]
Whirl away now[00:02:49]
Whirl away now[00:02:54]
Whirl away now[00:02:58]
Whirl away[00:03:03]
Some giveth their hand[00:03:14]
Some giveth their land[00:03:17]
Some giveth their life[00:03:19]
You lay in the fields of grain[00:03:22]
The staff of life all around you[00:03:25]
But yet you you will cut someone down[00:03:28]
For their possessions[00:03:31]
Some material thing[00:03:33]
And our children are being blown away[00:03:35]
Like wishes in the wind[00:03:37]
For the sake of their coat[00:03:43]
Or the colors of their coat[00:03:45]
Or the color of their skin[00:03:47]
Or the name on their shoes[00:03:49]
And the mother cries "Why they taken my son "[00:03:54]
And the father wonders "Are they taking my boy "[00:04:02]
He extended his hand[00:04:11]
He gave them his land[00:04:15]
He gave them his bread[00:04:17]
He gave them his heart[00:04:20]
Said hello friend[00:04:22]
Hello friend[00:04:27]
Hello friend[00:04:31]
Hello friend[00:04:35]
