Sweeter Times Songtext
von Southern Tenant Folk Union

Close your eyes
For the end is coming
There′s no where left to go
It's been so long
And your almost ready
For the angels to take you home
And it′s goodbye to the harvest
That left you hungry
And the drought that you kept you dry
And farewell to the land that could never love you
And hello to sweeter times


Hello sweet darling
Oh how I missed you
While you been far far away

Hold me now in this land
Where you'll always love me
And show me sweeter days

Open your eyes
For he's right before you
Dance into the light
You′ve touched this land for the very last time
You must say goodnight

And it′s goodbye to the harvest
That left you hungry
And the drought that you kept you dry
And farewell to the land that could never love you
And hello to sweeter times
