I was runnin through the city like a crowd upsetter
And a bad baby shaker and a mean go getter
I was runnin through the jungle with a whiskey in my hand
I’m a song and dance swashbucklin drinkin man

The floods are a’ comin
And The fields are a’ burnin
And The sky is a’ fallin
Gonna wrap my arms around it
The wine is a’ flowin
And our hayday’s a’ comin
And our colors are showin
Gonna wrap my arms around it

The pillars have crumbled
And the temples have fallen
And the blood is a’ flowin
Gonna wrap my arms around it
The wine is a’ flowin
And our hayday’s a’ comin
And our colors are showin
Gonna wrap my arms around it

Chorus:
Hold fast and we shall see
Stay close and I won’t let you fall
Triumph or tragedy
Our hands build what our hearts believe in

The pillars have crumbled
And the temples have fallen
And the blood is a’ flowin
Gonna wrap my arms around it
And after the struggle
even if I’m barely breathin
the next time I see you
gonna wrap my arms around you, girl

Chorus
