Soul HitchHiker - Dead Presidents

Will the circle be unbroken, bye and bye Lord, bye and bye
There's a better home a-waiting in the sky Lord in the sky

Chopper dropped him in the jungle, turned his young man's heart coal black
He crawled down Viet Cong tunnels. Knew he was never coming back
Generals strafed their men on the hillsides, destroyed what they'd never win
Maneuvers led by dead presidents drenched in the seven deadly sins

Will the circle be unbroken, bye and bye Lord, bye and bye
There's a better home a-waiting in the sky Lord in the sky

He rode past that rusty Ford plant, there's boards across them doors
Iron bars on broken windows - no one buys American no more
They said union wages broke Ford's back here, gasoline lines upped the score
Competition drove the nail in, and ol' Henry Ford crossed the Texas border

Will the circle be unbroken, bye and bye Lord, bye and bye
There's a better home a-waiting in the sky Lord in the sky

Had a shop out on Town Line, had eight guys never let me down
But the market showed a correction, and them bankers come to buy me out
Last time I crawled through scrap yards, climbed up from the dead and gone
This time I keep on pushing but I won't believe them lowdown bankers won

Will the circle be unbroken, bye and bye Lord, bye and bye
There's a better home a-waiting in the sky Lord in the sky

Well the Generals and the Captains and corporations bled this land
Main Street gunners hide in foxholes - ain't no rescue planes gonna land
This time I thought they'd remember history red with our blood
Nothing's sacred but them eagles and they squeeze 'em mighty good

Will the circle be unbroken, bye and bye Lord, bye and bye
There's a better home a-waiting in the sky Lord in the sky
There's a better home a-waiting in the sky Lord in the sky
