About the Artist
Lyrics
I heard the words of Cyrus Stopped at the light one day He blessed me for the offering Then he looked at me and said: "There is a flood that's comin' So make your plans for runnin' Far away" There is a flood that's comin' So make your plans for runnin' I paid him almost nothing And nothing I have laid I cursed the pearls of Cyrus I threw them all away Though high above it's sunny There ain't no use in runnin' Not today
