Hoodoo Gurus Middle Of The Land Lyrics

Middle Of The Land Lyrics

Here I stand in the middle of the land

Take my hand in the middle of the
land



You'll see something that's new in the sunshine

You'll
be the winter that's turning to springtime



Here I stand in the
middle of the land

Take my hand in the middle of the land



Someday someone will try to confuse you.

They'll say things you want
to hear and they'll use you.

I thought we'd live and learn

But some
folks seem to yearn

For values unsophisticated.

Those days are dead
and gone

I won't wish them back upon

A world that's much more
complicated.



Here I stand in the middle of my ...

Take my
hand, I'm always glad to lend a hand.



They'll try to blind you
with T.V. religion.

Don't buy their hand-me-down second - opinions.

Sometimes the biggest lies

Are most easily disguised,

Dressed up
like the Road To Glory,

Then somewhere down the line

You'll rub your
eyes and find

You're on a path to your own Purgatory.



You'll
know something as old as the moonlight,

You'll throw superstition and
fear away tonight.

They'll paint us black and white,

They'll paint
us wrong and right,

They'll paint us all into a corner.

They'll try
to cool us down

But they could never fool us now.

We're steamed-up
hotter than a Swedish Sauna!



Here I stand in the middle of the
land

Take my, take my hand - your horizons will expand.

Land - in
the middle, middle of the land

(Land on me.)
