Lyrics:In the howling wind comes a stinging rain
See them driving nails
Into the souls on the
tree of pain
From the firefly, a red orange glow
See the face of fear
Running scared
in the valley below


Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the
blue
Bullet the blue


In the locust wind comes a rattle and hum
Jacob
wrestled the angel
And the angel was overcome
You plant a demon seed
You raise a
flower of fire
See them burning crosses
See the flames higher and
higher


Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the
blue
Bullet the blue


(Yeah...alright)


So this guy comes up to
me
His face red like a rose on a thorn bush
Like all the colors of a royal flush
And
he's peeling off those dollar bills
Slapping ;em down
One hundred, two hundred
And I
can see those fighter planes
I can see those fighter planes
Across the mud huts where the
children sleep
Through the valleys and the quiet city street
We take the staircase to the
first floor
We turn the key and slowly unlock the door
As a man breathes into a
saxophone
And through the walls we hear the city groan
Outside it's America
Outside
it's America


[Spoken part follows]


So I'm back in my hotel room
with Johnnie Coltrane and the love supreme. In the next room I hear some woman scream out that her
lover's turning off, turning on the television. And I can't tell the difference between ABC news,
Hill Street Blues, and a preacher on the old time gospel hour stealing money from the sick and the
old.

Well the God I believe in isn't short of cash, mister.

I feel a long
way from the hills of San Salvador, where the sky is ripped open, and the rain pours through a
gaping wound...pelting the women and children...pelting the women and children...

...who
run...who run...into the arms...of America
