All These People
I never saw nothing like that before in my life
I hope I never see it again
There were all these people, oh just waiting there
There were all these people, oh just waiting there for someone
But nobody came, and nobody saw
Cause nobody wanted to go that far
There were all these people, all waiting there
I was so damned scared
I held hands with a crazy man
I was so damned scared
I held hands and bonded with the crazy man
But he wasn't crazy, and I wasn't scared
We were just brothers to sit there and stare
And all those people waiting there
Well the first two people we saw, left the way they came
I grabbed my brothers hand, neither one of us could better stand the shame
Two of them, the two of us
Lying in water
Living in dust
So were all these people waiting there
Well the guy that showed me home
Was by a stranger's hand
And I carried on a moment, just for the soul of a country man
I never knew you, and I never stayed
I ain't gonna leave it
Nothing to praid
All those people waiting there
This is for all those people
Well, the next time I went down
There was no one there
And I wondered if my brother, had bought another piece of land
One day a stranger, one day my kin
I'd probably never see him again
Just like all those people waiting there
(waiting there, hmm, waiting for someone to come and sing about me, hmm, waiting there yeah.
Come and sing about me
I hope I never see it again
There were all these people, oh just waiting there
There were all these people, oh just waiting there for someone
But nobody came, and nobody saw
Cause nobody wanted to go that far
There were all these people, all waiting there
I was so damned scared
I held hands with a crazy man
I was so damned scared
I held hands and bonded with the crazy man
But he wasn't crazy, and I wasn't scared
We were just brothers to sit there and stare
And all those people waiting there
Well the first two people we saw, left the way they came
I grabbed my brothers hand, neither one of us could better stand the shame
Two of them, the two of us
Lying in water
Living in dust
So were all these people waiting there
Well the guy that showed me home
Was by a stranger's hand
And I carried on a moment, just for the soul of a country man
I never knew you, and I never stayed
I ain't gonna leave it
Nothing to praid
All those people waiting there
This is for all those people
Well, the next time I went down
There was no one there
And I wondered if my brother, had bought another piece of land
One day a stranger, one day my kin
I'd probably never see him again
Just like all those people waiting there
(waiting there, hmm, waiting for someone to come and sing about me, hmm, waiting there yeah.
Come and sing about me
