We can wait forever on a busking shoes
Catching up on sleep or catching up on news
We can whisper prayers, or shanty on the blue
We can make a choice, 'cause either one will do
Seeking out the big one
Wondering will it come
Will we wait forever?
Maybe it won't come
Back man in the choir band
The yellow and the red men
The prisoner and the free man
A-waiting for the man
Sitting on the sidelines
Sitting on the fence
We can wave the flag, or turn away from evidence
We can go and get it, or we can wait around
We can listen hard and never hear a sound
Seeking utopia
Wondering will it show
And is it worth the struggle?
Nobody seems to know, mm
Back man in the choir band
The yellow and the red men
The prisoner and the free man
A-waiting for the man
Back man in the choir band
The yellow and the red men
The prisoner and the free man
A-waiting for the man
Back man in the choir band
The yellow and the red men
The prisoner and the free man
A-waiting for the man
