Lyrics:
glistening
Like dew on a carpet lawn
In these dark towns folk lie sleeping
As the heavy horses thunder by
To wake the dying city
With the living
Wish that I was on old Rocky Top down in the Tennessee hills
Ain't no smoggy smoke on Rocky Top ain't no telephone bills
Once I had a man on Rocky
Wish that I was on ole Rocky Top
Down in the Tennessee hills
ain't no smoggy smoke on Rocky Top
ain't no telephone bills
Once I had a girl
pollinated by the "Be"
Pac called it the rose that rose from concrete
How do you define divine that finds street?
"Hip bop," the color of my leaves
Not
Wilson, Wilson
Wilson, Wilson
Wilson
Once upon a time there was a mountain
That rose out of a vast green forest
And in the forest there were birds
(Recitation)
Once in Persia reigned a king who upon his royal ring carved these words so true and wise
Which when held before his eyes gave him
the darkness you go
Defying the dangers ahead
In search for silver and gold
Driven by greed
Chorus
Upon his treasure lies the creature rare
A sleeping beast
spent a Lambo on a crib, now I'm livin' fine
High In Baldwin Hills, I started tweakin' on the 405
I'm gettin' gold in a rush like the 49s
Number one
fight to be Jews
Did come to these hills with me
On my death bed your leader I'll name
'Tis Judah, the Macabee
My name is Judah, the Macabee
By the name
Starvation is a creation of the devil
A rebel
I'm bringin' food to the people like a widow
brinin' flowers to a grave in the middle
of the city
Loving silhouette drawn by the skyline to infinity
I'm not the only one who gets stuck in this dying city
I'm running on loose shoestrings and I
Need a house in the hills
Or a house by the lake
Man I'm waiting for dinner that's liquor and steak
Man I'm writing these lyrics I'm flicking the page
We're driving down the 401
The city in our wake
Up into the northlands
Following the scarlet snake
Away from all their slogans of despair
Etched upon
It's never been easy
To start upon a journey
That you know is gonna
Bring you to your knees
Starring down an open road
Your heart and breath go cold
A peaceful town down by the lake
A cradle of goodness and righteousness it was said
Quite prosperous one might add
Rye fields, cattle, and the riches
I waited by the riverside
The lilies swayin' slow
Thought I might see you passin' by
But then I had to go
I saw a light upon a hill
A city sparkled
end up in Red Hill
That's the anthem of the year from rude boys (rude boys)
BV or Coner boys is our detour (detour)
First day we out and we're on tour
the hills of Idaho
But the heart of the Appaloosa never died
In the winter came the crowned ones near frozen in the cold
Bringing firearms and spyglasses
we like to drive
Way out in the country
Five miles out of the city limit we're singing
And your hand's upon my knee
So we're okay
We're fine
Baby I'm
upon the streets below
I see her once again with him
Antonina smiles
I call the men to arms and shout, O stavros nika!
We sweep into the fields
But as long as I can get there by forever
I'll admit that I don't really mind
'Cause somewhere in that city by the pretty crystal sea
I've been
Surely there is a mine for silver and a place where they refine gold
Iron is taken from the hills and copper is taken from the ground
So where is
Once upon a time there was a miller's daughter
Whose father bragged she spun gold from straw.
The greedy king enslaved her to do such,
But
Once upon a time in a city made of gold
Streets were full of dreams
The air was full of hope
But somewhere in the midnight
Beneath the crooked moon
