Cement Prairie - XIT

I have come to see the circus

That people laugh about

I have come to see the progress

My father spoke about

I have come to see the puppets

That live in fear and doubt

That’s not for me

No, it’s not for me

Take me away

From the cement prairie

Living means

Much much more to me

I said Take me away

From the cement prairie

Living means

Much much more to me

I have lived beside the waters

And peace was everywhere

I have lived atop the mountains

Where I could breathe fresh air

I have lived among real people

And I was happy there

Oh, that’s for me

Yeah, that’s for me

Take me away

From the cement prairie

Living means

Much much more to me

I said Take me away

From the cement prairie

Living means

Much much more to me

Take me away (from the cement prairie)

I said take me away (from the cement prairie)

Take me away (from the cement prairie)

I said take me away (from the cement prairie)

Take me away

From the cement prairie

Living means

Much much more to me

I said Take me away

From the cement prairie

Living means

Much much more to me
