John Denver - The Chosen Ones слова песни
This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the different directions album, and has also been released on the john denver collection - rocky mountain high album.I heard how all the lights went out in memphisOn the death night anniversary of the kingThe pretenders talking dirty in the palaceBut it doesnt have that old familiar ringI see theres been some changes in the valleyAll the renegades have finally settled downNow they worship in the temples of their rivalsAnd desecrate the holy heart of townCant you hear all those sweet voices singingTakin care of the chosen onesCant you hear all those mission bells ringinSay a prayer for the chosen onesI read theyre pourin oil on troubled watersYet they cast a giant shadow on the landLets spend another night across the borderAnd bury all our secrets in the sandNow they claim there is a message in the bibleThey swear there is no master and his slaveBut the futures lookin dim for the lonesome cowboyWhen the hand that rocks that cradle digs the graveWords by nick smith, music by and joe camilleri
