Jorgen Barras (1834 - 1900) [Revelation Road]

I. Dust Bowl Dreaming:
Can you feel the rain?
The rain will come again

Times are hard and many farming families feel so alone
Their land is dry and the harvest over
No one watching over them now!

The dust bowl dream just blows away as they look skywards
Hoping for cloud, nowhere to go
So who can they turn to now??

On Revelation Road, I'm gonna get down inside your soul
Revelation Road, Call the Devil and get to the healing

II. The Preacher:
When the flags were flying and the camp site marked the grounds,
the people flocked from miles about as witness to the sound
They'd come to see the preacher and his glory gospel band
The power of his stories and the bible in his hand

When he said stop! - STOP! Well, all the clouds would roll away
When he said stop! - STOP! Oh! Even on a rainy day
When he said go! - GO! How the choir would start to sing
When he said go! - GO! With a full of praises swing

Take your seats for wonderment, our floor show guaranteed!
Ticket prices? Step this way, our purpose is your need
Feed upon the power, the power of the crowd
And it's only twenty dollars, but no policemen are allowed!

When he said stop! - STOP! Well, all the clouds would roll away
When he said stop! - STOP! Oh! Even on a rainy day
When he said go! - GO! How the choir would start to sing
When he said go! - GO! With a full of praises swing

Can you feel the rain?
The rain will come again
