gordie johnson - rolling thunder lyrics
[verse]
a worried man, i stand alone
outside my farm and family home
and there i raise my bloodshot eyes
and gaze upon a parchment sky
my handy work had turned to dust
so all my faith in god i thrust
now, to the sky the worried man is cryin’…
i said…
[chorus]
lord, i’m prayin’ for that rollin’ thunder
lord, i’m under a mountain of sand
lord, i’m prayin’ for that rollin’ thunder
and i wonder, can you heal my land?
[verse 2]
the wind has spurned the land so hard
majestic fields of wheat lay charred
and through this desert camouflage
to me appeared a cruel mirage
of water from a mountain spring
an end to all my suffering
no mercy and no favour earned
my cattle culled and my bushes burned
[chorus]
lord, i’m prayin’ for that rollin’ thunder
lord, i’m under a mountain of sand
lord, i’m prayin’ for that rollin’ thunder
and i wonder, can you heal my land?
[bridge]
[verse 3]
if god demands a sacrifice
tell me, what’s his asking price?
to the land, i pledged my life
but abraham with his k!llin’ knife
has come and claimed this prairie son
in the heartland of saskatchewan
a farmer earns a livin’ or dies for tryin’…
[chorus]
lord, i’m prayin’ for that rollin’ thunder
lord, i’m under a mountain of sand
lord, i’m prayin’ for that rollin’ thunder
and i wonder, can you heal my land?
