NEW SINGLE: Tom MacDonald - "man in the sky" - CRAZY-HORSE - 22-02-2025
i didnt know where to put this one so i chose here even though its not strictly country/folk/americana
i love it
There's a man on TV, at a desk and a suit
He lies through his teeth and they still call it the news
There's a man in a whit coat, who's medicine kills
He loves when you're sick, 'cause you pay for his pills
There's a man at the bank, who will give you a loan
So, you'll buy a house, and then he'll take your home
There's a man who wants you spending your life online
'Cause you're searching for truth, but controls what you find
We'll be fine babe, if we don't make it through
There's a man, in the church, who I really hope told me the truth
Said there's a man in the sky, watching over me and you
It don't help if you can fly, it's way past the moon
And there's men here on the ground, who just want to burn it down
They want money, they want power, don't want anyone else allowed
We'll be fine babe, I'll be the man for you
There's a man in the courts, sworn to uphold the law
But he's crooked as a fencepost, and don't do his job
There's a man in the classroom, who should know the facts
But he's brainwashin' kids, teaching English in Math
There's a man in your phone, who hears everything you say
He knows everywhere you go, every joke you ever made
There's a man with a bloodline, that owns the whole world
Every airplane, and building, and every gold brick, and pearl
We'll be fine babe, if we don't make it through
There's a man, in the church, who I really hope told me the truth
Said there's a man in the sky, watching over me and you
It don't help if you can fly, it's way past the moon
And there's men here on the ground, who just want to burn it down
They want money, they want power, don't want anyone else allowed
We'll be fine babe, I'll be the man for you
Pray that the man in the skies, watching over us tonight
'Cause there's people looking down on us for fighting for what's right
Hold the line bae, and I'll hold on to you
There's a man in the clouds, and I hope he's looking down
'Cause people here on Earth who tryna put us in the ground
We'll be fine babe, I won't let go of you
