The Hardest Cut

One, two, one two, three, four

You took off in the dead of night
But before you did, got your hair combed right, yeah
The neighborhood watch knows the score
And they're knockin' at your door, let them knock some more

They're saying you need a little, protection
But following the leader gonna turn you off the religion

It's coming down, the hardest cut
World wars in your mind
Long day into night, the hardest cut
We live on a knife
Here it come now, here it come now
Here it is the hardest cut

I took off in thе dead of night
But before I did, got my affairs in ordеr and my boots on
The Hallelujah choir needs a score
And they're knocking at my door, let them knock some more

They're saying I need a little, direction
But following the leader gonna turn me off the religion

It's coming down, the hardest cut
World wars in my mind
Long day into night, the hardest cut
We live on a knife
Here it come now, here it come now
Here it is the hardest cut

It's coming down, the hardest cut
World wars in my mind
Long day into night, the hardest cut
Who's taking it alive
Here it come now, here it come now
Here it is the hardest cut
