Progress Bridge

 

What is happening to our country?
It’s a mountain that is crumbling
a volcano that’s erupting
and a boulder that is tumbling

With strange lightnings and strange thunder
it’s deceitful and there’s hatred
catastrophic, it’s a wonder
Not my people or my nation
our bridge will never get washed away

What’s the matter with our country?
Stuck in back of a big dump truck
And another we’re in front of
Where’s an offramp? we’re in trouble

When has Jesus or Rhett Butler
lost all meaning to a nation?
But a land that has been humbled
is all there and only shaken
Our bridge will never get washed away

God’s Bridge will never get washed away
How do we know we’re on the right track?
It’s Progress Bridge
his name means progress

What is happening with our country?
At the Doctor’s, I am under
She is not since she is stubborn
Though she’s battered and she’s bloodied

Won in life but she’s a mudder
Hypnotized but she’s no patient
of the Doctor’s and malfunctions
Just a zombie, so, she’s fading
Our bridge will never get washed away

God’s Bridge will never get washed away
How do we know we’re on the right track?
It’s Progress Bridge
his name means progress

I’m checking my speedometer
I’m riding on the bridge
I’m on the highway
the highway that is his

What’s been happening to my country?
In their car left in the dust is
in my mirror they’ve been busted
with this romance I’m in love with

Quickened senses trusting muscle
with these guys I cruise and race and
who knows why they’re riding busses
on this highway’s all new places
our bridge will never get washed away

God’s Bridge will never get washed away
he takes us to his place far away

 

 

 

Have a happy Independence Day!
