Such Is The World That We Live In - Chris Hillman

My name is Charly Charlton, I lived here all my life

My family nom deSeven, I had a loving wife

I live out on the border on the outskirts of town

I’m not sure will be here when tomorrow comes around

My grind grandfather came here in 1853

Worked the land and raised the cross, fought for his liberty

If he were here right now just imagine what he’d see

I’m pretty sure he’d stop and say these words to me

Hold boys hold on tight, all is strong and now is right

Stand your ground and take up the fight

All we have is all we’ve been and here we go round and round again

Such is the world that we live in, that we live in

I never thought the day would come when I see America on the run

And not sure what they’re running from

When all is lost in our schools when the godless wants attempt to rule

We can only wonder who’s the fool, his horse was saddled

Hold boys hold on tight, we know everything’s gonna be alright

Now as you see the end’s in sight

No darkness will hold us down, no empty words will make a sound

We’ll be together again, such is the world that we live in

Hold boys hold on tight, we know everything’s gonna be alright

Now as you see the end’s in sight

No darkness will hold us down, no empty words will make a sound

We’ll be together again, such is the world that we live in
