Bang a Drum — текст песни (Bon Jovi)

J. bon jovi



I went to see the preacher

To teach me how to pray

He looked at me and smiled

Then the preacher turned away

He said if you want to tell him something

You aint gotta fold your hands

Say it with your heart

Your soul and believe it

And Id say amen



Bang a drum for the sinners

Bang a drum for the sins

Bang a drum for the losers

And those who win

Bang a drum bang it loudly

Or as soft as you need

Bang a drum for yourself son

And a drum for me



I called upon my brother just the

Other day, he said: john Im gonna

Die if I dont start to live again

I work each day and night like clockwork

Just trying to make ends meet

I could kick this bad worlds ass

If I could just get on my feet



Id bang a drum for the dying

Bang a drum for the truth

Bang a drum for the innocence

Lost in our youth

Bang a drum bang it loudly

Or as soft as you need

Bang a drum for you brother

And a drum for me



I dont know where all the rivers run

I dont know how far, I dont know how come

But Im gonna die believin

Each step that I take

Aint worth the ground that

I walk on

If we dont walk it our

Own way



No I dont claim to be a wiseman

A poet or a saint

Im just another man whos searching

For a better way

But my heart beats loud as thunder

For the things that I believe

Sometimes I wanna run for cover

Sometimes I want to scream



Bang a drum for tomorrow

Bang a drum for the past

Bang a drum for the heroes

That wont come back

Bang a drum for the promise

Bang a drum for the lies

Bang a drum for the lovers

And the tears theyve cried

Bang a drum bang it loudly

Or as soft as you need

But as long as my heart keeps on bangin

I got a reason to believe
