  • Текст песни Don Henley - Little Tin God



    A new age is dawning
    On fewer than expected
    Business as Usual
    That's how the headline read
    Some shaky modern saviors
    Have now been resurrected
    In all this excitement
    You may have been misled


    People want a miracle
    They say Oh Lord, can't you see us?
    We're tryin' to make a livin' down here
    And keep the children fed
    But, from little dark motel rooms
    To Six Flags over Jesus
    How are the mighty fallen
    So the Bible said


    You don't have to pray to a little tin god
    Step out of the way for a little tin god
    you might fear the reaper, fear the rod
    But you never have to get down on your knees
    You don't have to holler, please, please
    No, you never have to get down on your knees
    For a little tin god


    The cowboy's name was Jingo
    And he heard that there was trouble
    So in a blaze of glory
    He rode out of the west
    No one was ever certain
    What it was that he was sayin'
    But they loved it when he told them
    They were better than the rest


    But you don't have to pray to a little tin god
    Step out of the way for a little tin god
    You might hate the system, hate the job
    But you never have to get down on your knees
    You don't have to holler, please, please
    No, you never have to get down on your knees
    For a little tin god


    Throw down a rope from heaven
    And lead the flock to water
    The man in the middle would have you think
    That you have no other choice
    But to wander in the wilderness
    Of all the upturned faces
    If you stop and listen long enough
    You will hear your own small voice


    But you don't have to pray to a little tin god
    Step out of the way for a little tin god
    You might fear the reaper, fear the rod
    But you never have to get down on your knees
    You don't have to holler, please, please
    No, you never have to get down on your knees
    Never have to holler, please, please
    You never have to get down on your knees
    You never have to holler, please, please
    You never have to get down on your knees
    For a little tin god
