Celebration Day

Her face is cracked from smiling All the fears that she's been hiding And it seems that pretty soon everybody's gonna know And her voice is sore from shouting Cheering winners that are losing Worries that their days are few And soon they'll have to go-oh Yeah! My, my, my, I'm so happy Gonna join the band We're gonna sing and dance in celebration We're in the promised land She hears them talk of new ways To protect the home she lives in Then wonders what it's all about When they break down the door Her name is Brown or White or Black You know her very well You hear her cries of mercy As the winners toll the bell Yeah yeah My, my, my, I'm so happy I'm gonna join the band Gonna dance and sing in celebration In the promised land [Guitar solo] There's a train that leaves the station Heading for your destination But the price you pay to nowhere Has increased a dollar Yes, it has If you walk, you're gonna get there Though it takes a little longer See it in the distance You will wring your hands and moan Moan, moan [Guitar solo]
