From the recording TUMBLIN' DOWN THE HOLE
Lyrics
When the river refuses to bend
When the rooster has forsaken the hen
When the banker has nothing to lend
When forever ends up never again
When the light of the sun has been dimmed
When the eagle turns its back on the wind
When the righteous have all been condemned
When forever ends up never again
When the rain from the sky
Turns into knives
And the clouds rolling by are laughing at me
The plants and the trees
The wind and the breeze
The birds and the bees are laughing at me
They’re laughing at me
When the mountains bow down to the sea
When all who are living are free
When we get to keep the money we spend
When forever ends up never again
