D-DU-UDU
Oh,  my land is like a wild  goose
Wanders  all around everywhere
Trembles  and it shakes till every tree  is loose
It  rolls the meadows and it rolls  the nails
So  take me down to your dance  floor
 And I  won´t mind the people  when  they stare
Paint  a different color on your front  door
And  tomorrow we will still  be there
Jesus  built a ship to sing a song  to
It  sails the rivers and it sails  the tide
Some  of my friends don´t know who  they belong to
Some  can´t get a single thing  to  work inside
 So take  me down to your dance  floor
And  I won´t mind the people  when  they stare
Paint  a different color on your front  door
And  tomorrow we will still  be there
I  loved you every day and now I´m  leaving
And  I can see the sorrow in  your eyes
I  hope you know a lot more than you´re  believing
Just  so the sun don´t hurt  you when you  cry
Oh,  take me down to your dance  floor
I  won´t mind the people  when  they  stare
Paint  a different color on your front  door
And  tomorrow we may still  be  there
And  tomorrow we may still  be there
