Bruce Cockburn - It's Going Down Slow Lyrics

Send "It's Going Down Slow" ringtone to your cell

(From the album "Sunwheel Dance")

Go tell the sergeant-major

To get that thing repaired

They're losing their pawns in Asia

There's slaughter in every square

Oh --

It's going down slow (2x)

Go get the fire department

To bring that hose along

And them and the schoolboy bandits

Can water each other's lawn

Oh --

It's going down slow (2x)

Everybody seems to be leaving

Better say your travelling prayers

It don't matter how you get it

It's where do you go from there

Oh --

It's going down slow (4x)

God, damn the Hands of Glory

That hold the bloody firebrand high;

Close the book and end the story

Of how so many men have died.

Let the world retain in memory

That mighty tongues tell mighty lies;

And if mankind must have an enemy

Let it be his warlike pride,

Let it be his warlike pride.
