Well the walls come tumbling down the walls come tumbling down Just when you think you've got it made the walls come tumbling down If you found love that's strong and true then you better hold your head up high Cause you've got somethin' that most folks want and crave till the day they die I once knew love that was made of rock I let crumble like sand I treated bad the love I've had and now I'm a lonely man Yeah the walls come... There was a man I knew one time who lived for just one thing For silver and gold he'd cheat and lie if it meant a personal game But it wadn't long till the news got out about his cheatin' ways He lost the friends that he once knew and the money he had made Yeah the walls come... [ dobro ] One of these we're all gonna leave this ol' troubled land And you gonna have to answer just like me where to go to make your stand So you better be sure before you die there ain't no cheatin' ways Cause there won't be time on the other side brother it'll be too late Well the walls come... Just when you think you got it made the walls come tumbling down
