Celebration Day - Remaster

Her face is cracked from smiling

All the fears that she's been hiding

And it seems that pretty soon, everybody's gonna know

And her voice is sore from shouting

Cheering winners who are losing

And she worries if their days are few and soon they'll have to go

My, my, my, I'm so happy

I'm gonna join the band

We gonna dance and sing in celebration

We are in the promised land

She hears them talk of new ways

To protect the home she lives in

Then she wonders what it's all about when they break down the door.

Her name is brown or white or black

You know her very well,

You hear her cries of mercy as the winners toll the bell.

My my my I'm so happy

We gonna join the band

We are gonna dance and sing in celebration

We're in the promised land.

Oh, there is a train that leaves the station

Heading for your destination

But the price you pay to nowhere has increased a dollar more

Yes, it has!

And if you walk you're gonna get there

And though it takes a little longer

And when you see it in the distance you will wring your hands and moan

Oh yeah, you'll moan

Oh, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, you'll moan, you'll moan

You're g-gone, you're g-gone, yeah-yea

You're g-gone

My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my you are gone

You're gone

My, my, my

You're gonna, gonna get there, it's just a little longer

And when you see him in the distance you will wave your hand
