Kingdome Come lyrics

Music and Lyrics by Tom Verlaine

Well I walked in the pouring rain
And I heard the voice that cries it`s all in vain
The face of doom was shining in my room
I just need one day somewhere far away
Lord I just need one day

Well I`ll be breaking these rocks until the Kingdom comes
And cutting this hay until the Kingdom comes
yes I`ll be breaking these rocks until the Kingdom comes
It`s my price to pay until the Kingdom comes

The river`s so muddy but it may come clear
And I know too well what`s keeping me here
I`m just a slave of a burning ray
Give me the night I can`t take another sight
Please give me the night

Well I`ll be breaking these rocks until the Kingdom comes
And cutting this hay until the Kingdom comes
yes I`ll be breaking these rocks until the Kingdom comes
It`s my price to pay until the Kingdom comes

The sun keeps beating down the wall`s a mile high
Up in the towers they`re watching me hoping I`m gonna die
But they`ll open these cells when the Kingdom comes
I won`t be breaking no rocks when the Kingdom comes
yes they`ll open these cells when the Kingdom comes
I won`t hear their talk when the Kingdom comes
I`m going up for pardon when the Kingdom comes
Well pardon me when the Kingdom comes

I won`t be breaking no rock
I won`t be breaking no rock
I won`t be breaking no rock
When the Kingdom comes
