Lyrics

There's a ring around the moon, a whisper on the breeze An underlying urgency rattling the leaves From where I am standing, so high upon this Hill, it looks like it could never change Oh Lord, I pray it will There's a ring around the moon A ring around the moon A sign of certain change, they say, let it get here soon A ring around the moon A ring around the moon Blowing in some better days, that ring around the moon In 1937 my grandfather's father said, "Here's a Piece of paradise, now make it bake your bread." Have a little faith, my son, lose a little sweat You got your health, you got your Freedom, it's as good as it will get There's a ring around the moon, a ring around the moon A sign of certain change, they say, let it get here soon A ring around the moon, a ring around the moon Blowing in some better days, that ring around the moon Four full generations, five will be here soon From horse with team to diesel lean, fire, flood and boom A 90-hour working week for less than basic wage A man would be a fool to stay here, so why do I remain? Now, I've got my computer and my satellite TV I'm living well beyond nowhere in the lap of luxury But I can't afford good labor since the market slipped again The bank is on my shoulder and I still can't make it rain But it's going to get better, always has and always will Meanwhile, I'll just struggle on and shuffle all these bills I'll work a little harder, I'll sleep a little less And if there's anything left over, then that's what the kids will get There's a ring around the moon, a ring around the moon Sign of certain change, they say, let it get here soon A ring around the moon, a ring around the moon Blowing in some better days Hey There's a ring around the moon, a ring around the moon Sign of certain change, they say, let it get here soon A ring around the moon, a ring around the moon Blowing in some better days, that ring around the moon Oh, it's a ring around the moon
