Widespread Panic - Good People lyrics

We are the good people
The ones they told you about
The ones that disappeared
Behind the calling of the sun
Like footprints to the sea
They dance upon the rising storm
Ten thousand voices singing
Hardly thrills our soul

Louder and louder hear the engines roar
Faster and faster fables overturned
Tighter and tighter oh the lightning flash
Closer and closer
Here are your waters so drink
And be whole again
Machines that make their rounds
Don't care if they ever see the dawn
It'll be peaceful flowing rivers
After the winter's come and gone
Some are weak and wounded
Others sick and sore old woman at the well
Dropping roses from planted thorns

Louder and louder hear the engines roar
Faster and faster fables overturned
Tighter and tighter oh the lightning flash
Closer and closer
Here are your waters so drink
And be whole again

We are the good people
The ones they told you about
One kiss of mother nature
Her spirit wait's in light

Louder and louder hear the engines roar
Faster and faster fables overturned
Tighter and tighter oh the lightning flash
Closer and closer
Here are your waters so drink
Here are your waters so drink
And be whole again be whole again
