"Middle Of The Land" lyrics

"Middle Of The Land"

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

Here I stand in the middle of the land
Take my hand in the middle of the land

You'll see it's somethin' that's new in the sunshine
You'll be the winter that's turnin' to springtime

Here I stand in the middle of the land
(In the middle of the land)
Take my hand in the middle of the land
(In the middle of the land)

Someday someone will try to confuse you
And they'll say what you want to hear and they'll use you
I thought we'd live and learn
But some folks seem to yearn for values, unsophisticated
Those days are dead and gone
I won't wish them back upon
A world that's much more complicated

Here I stand in the middle of the land
(In the middle of the land)
Take my hand in the middle of the land
(In the middle of the land)

I said, here I stand
In the middle of the land
(In the middle of the land)
You gotta take my hand
I'm always glad to lend a hand

They'll try to blind you with TV religion
Don't buy their hand-me-down second opinions
Sometimes the biggest lies are most easily disguised
Dressed up like a road to glory
Then somewhere down the line you will rub your eyes
And find you're on a path to your own purgatory, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah...

You'll know something as old as the moonlight
You'll throw superstition and fear away tonight
They'll paint us black and white
They'll paint us wrong and right
They'll paint us all into a corner
They'll try to cool us down but they could never fool us now
We're steamed-up hotter than a Swedish sauna, yeah

Here I stand in the middle of the land
Take my, take my hand, your horizons will expand
Here I stand... in the middle, middle of the land
Land... in the middle, middle of the land

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
The middle of the land
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
In the middle, middle of the land
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Middle of the land
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Land on me
