There's a meeting across the river
Just past the smokescreen in your eyes
Everybody's waiting to see you deliver
Now's the time to break the tie that binds

Come on down now from your fences
Come on down now to the other side

Broken down in another man's cell
Who's gonna be there to pay your bail?
It's hard sometimes to know what is right

Everyday's just another hard time
Yeah, you know by now you gotta pay to ride
And that's alright, I finally see the light

Didn't think there'd be a sermon
Don't make no difference by and by
I can't be bothered by your burden
It's just a matter of time before it dies

Broken down in another man's cell
Who's gonna be there to pay your bail?
It's hard sometimes to know what is right

Everyday's just another hard time
Yeah, you know by now you gotta pay to ride
And that's alright, I finally see the light

Now just go on about your business
Break out the truth at the light of day
But one more thing you should consider
Is how your lies gave you some damn good shade, yeah, baby

Broken down in another man's cell
Who's gonna be there to pay your bail?
It's hard sometimes to know what is right

Everyday's just another hard time
Yeah, you know by now you gotta pay to ride
And that's alright, I finally see the light

I finally see the light
Let it shine, let it shine, baby, let it shine, yeah
