Ring Your Bell

Words and Music by Raccoon

as recorded on Road Kill

 

 

I ain’t got the glue to mend your broken heart

I don’t think this song’s gonna do it

But at least it’s a start

I can see you’re tired or you got nothing to see

Sleep well my friend - I’ll be back at the break of day

 

So keep on dancin' to the beat of the drum

You’ll still be dancin' when daylight comes

You’ll be dancin' when daylight comes

You’ll be dancin' – You’ll be dancin' when daylight comes

 

Young children dance with never bein' told

Most of them forget though as they grow old

So dance, yeah - Let your children dance

If you dance your whole life long

Your soul will keep on dancin' when your body is gone

So dance, yeah - Let your spirit dance

 

When all the rest are dead and gone to hell

You’ll be dancin' on the hill top and ringin' your bell

And the bell that you ring is the song in your soul

And to ring that bell is your goal so go and dance

Let the nations dance

And if they do, future generations gonna dance

 

So keep on dancin' to the beat of the drum

You’ll still be dancin' when daylight come

You’ll be dancin' when daylight come

 

I wish if I could step inside the music

Because my whole life long

I feel that I belong inside a song, yeah

What would be your choice if you could choose it?

Where in this world do you belong? Yeah

 

So let the rhythm rattle your bones

Let the wings of melody carry your spirit home

Gonna carry your spirit on home

Say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah carry

Carry your spirit on home

Say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah aah

Carry your spirit on home
