Meldrum


Wagon wheel keeps on rolling 
Out of control and out of time 
Try to stop the rain with a fire dance 
Took my chances, but I'm still in a trance 

Take me to the ocean the spirits keep at bay 
Down by the ocean, wash away 

Passing through to get across to see what I might find 
The games that I once taught using a four inch line 
Caught a snake and raven, tails of rats and eagle eye 
All that's been denied revealed 

Take me to the ocean the spirits keep at bay 
Down by the ocean, wash away 

Let us lay down the land we founded 
Rest in our homes, call our own 
Pray to our gods we've contacted lately 
To make peace with our pipes 
Carved out of stone, rest in our homes, call our own 

Hear them crying in the morning wind 
Off in the distance a young boy dies 
Hear his mother weeping I say to you 
You lost your land but they can't steal your soul 

Take me to the ocean the spirits keep at bay 
Down by the ocean, wash away 

Let us lay down the land we founded 
Rest in our homes, call our own 
Pray to our gods we've contacted lately 
To make peace with our pipes 
Carved out of stone, rest in our homes, call our own 

Let us lay down the land we founded 
Rest in our homes, call our own 
Pray to our gods we've contacted lately 
To make peace with our pipes 
Carved out of stone 

Take me to the ocean the spirits keep at bay 
Down by the ocean, wash away 

Pray to our gods we've contacted lately 
To make peace with our pipes 
Carved out of stone, rest in our homes, call our own
