Was it bitter then,with our backs against the wall Were we better men,then we'd ever been before Say if she came again today,would you still answer to the call Tell the truth my friend,don't it matter anymore Verse 1: We were simple men,by her side when she was born It was simple then,like the freedom when you fall We were smaller then you see,but soon we gathered like a storm They don't understand what that thunder meant at all Verse 2: Was he crucified,was he done in by the law Are you satisfied that he'll never ride again Some people say he got away,they say he never died at all If that story's true,does it bother you my friend Chorus.
