ChorusHey yeah, walking in the valley of decisionHey yeah, reap all the wages of sinA big hollow manWith a fistful of shamCame a-walking across the seaAll leathery charmsAs he pinwheeled his armsAnd directed his gaze at me(He said)God will provide the wayYou read about it every day(I’m telling ya)All you gotta do is prayAnd furnish his house with silver(chorus)Liberty’s daughterWell primed for the slaughterA space where her brains had beenAll ribbons and curlsShe’s a good hearted girlBroken by what she had seen(She says)Daddy don’t you go awayStay with me and we can play(I’m begging ya)Do it just like yesterdayAnd I can go home to Jesus(chorus)(chorus)A regular JoeWho had nowhere to goA space where his home had beenA bombing religionA blight on the regionTo fuel a pious dream(And they said)God will provide the wayYou read about it every day(I’m telling ya)All you gotta do is prayAnd furnish his house with silver(chorus)
