I am a leaf floating down the river
I know it's hard to believe the news I deliver
You know I know it's a lot to consider
You think that's the news they deliver
You think it's not hard to be a sinner
Not you not me will decide who will be the winner
They will keep it all
They will take it all
To keep us down
Keep us down
To keep us down
Keep us down
To keep us down
Crickets like the wheel of a coasting bike
Thunder overhead lightning stike
Jets fly by overhead
Crickets and frogs songs lost in the crowd
They will keep it all
They will take it all
With hope as our wrecking ball we take em' down
With hope as our wrecking ball we take em' down
With hope as our wrecking ball we take em' down
With hope as our wrecking ball we take em' down
To keep us down
Keep us down
To keep us down
Keep us down
To keep us down
