Fire On The Cross Lyrics

Fire On The Cross lyrics

They're looking for some hired guns on the Texas border

 To shoot 'em all down if they try to cross over the water

 And they've got their old white hoods and the same old orders

 To keep the dark sons away from their daughters

 The nights they came on horses

 Are long gone with the wind

 Now they're passing out the torches

 And they're coming back again

 

 There's a shotgun blast

 There's a secret sign

 It's not a candle burning and it's not a Sunday night

 There's a fire on the cross

 There's a fire on the cross tonight

 

 There wasn't any sound but it felt like sudden thunder

 Two boards nailed together and burning bright

 He was walking by the window when he saw it

 Now he wonders

 Just what he's got to do to make him see

 He just want to be brothers

 The nights they came on horses

 Are long gone with the wind

 Now they're passing out the torches

 And they're coming back again

 

 There's a shotgun blast

 There's a secret sign

 It's not a candle burning and it's not a Sunday night

 There's a fire on the cross

 There's a fire on the cross tonight
