THE HEROES' SONG From the 2002 release "Over Cloud Nine" |
|
Words and music by Danny Johnson and Ann Stokes
Time to march in line for freedom
Time to preach words worth remembering
It's time to be your brother's keeper
Who wants their souls just to sink deeper?
Come on Gabriel blow your horn
Time for sinners to be reborn
Have we closed our minds and eyes
To those who have the power to change the times
Where have all the heroes gone buried in the rubble under zero
zone
Where have all the heroes' gone
Why do they crucify the best and leave the rest alone?
Good God could some one tell me where all the heroes have gone?
God if your up there looking down do we need a bomb to hear the
sound
Of starving country's on their knees titans of terror stalking the streets
Future world Indians say all the colors get together some day
Rainbow Warriors ride again head up the herd our friends
Where have all the heroes gone maybe marching over seas fighting for their home
Where have all the heroes gone maybe died in a riot on a campus
lawn
Good God could some one tell me where all the heroes have gone
Written on a foreign wall heeding worthy calls
Let the tribe get together and stand up tall
Saints and sinners hand in hand let the prince of piece lead the
clan
People for the people share the land legends of the past posses the band
And if your out there all alone this is for the heroes' song
A little diddy called the heroes' song
