Lyrics for Heart And Soul

Big Country Crossing Bsides Heart And Soul -------------- Today, cast out all of the devils you hold Away, to the time where you youth had been sold Remove, all the robes worn by sacred ideas Forget, false accounts of the deeds of brave men Chorus To the dream the fires the furnace Give all your heart and soul Teaching, from black books bound up too long ago Preaching, with a vengeance so bitter and worn Meeting, in great halls stained with fierce industry Ashamed, of the secrets the back rooms have held Chorus Laugh now, while the fire heats the iron so cold Jest now, over acts that you thought to be bold Call out, with a courage so false that it shakes Blindness, brought to bear by the years of neglect Chorus (three times)
