Well the walls come tumbling down the walls come tumbling down
Just when you think you've got it made the walls come tumbling down

If you found love that's strong and true then you better hold your head up high
Cause you've got somethin' that most folks want and crave till the day they die
I once knew love that was made of rock I let crumble like sand
I treated bad the love I've had and now I'm a lonely man
Yeah the walls come

There was a man I knew one time who lived for just one thing
For silver and gold he'd cheat and lie if it meant a personal game
But it wadn't long till the news got out about his cheatin' ways
He lost the friends that he once knew and the money he had made
Yeah the walls come
[ dobro ]
One of these we're all gonna leave this ol' troubled land
And you gonna have to answer just like me where to go to make your stand
So you better be sure before you die there ain't no cheatin' ways
Cause there won't be time on the other side brother it'll be too late
Well the walls come
Just when you think you got it made the walls come tumbling down
