Dirty city on my skin People in my face I came here for some love again But I found myself disgraced Take me up to Zion Where the women are so fair Where virtue drips like honey From her shiny long black hair Send your fire Purify me Send your fire Lord Purify me Vegas baby Vegas I can hear the people say We thought this was the promised land But the promise slipped away Out the door and down the street He slithered on the floor Turned into a rattlesnake And was never seen no more Send your fire Purify me Send your fire Lord Open my eyes so I can see Send your fire Purify me We spent the night in Babylon Stiletto lace and chain But high above that Harley I can hear the choir sing
Ed Kowalczyk - Zion lyrics
Take me on up to Zion Where I can lay my burden down Everything's on fire Ain't no peace in this crazy town
Take me on up to Zion Where my Lord will comfort me He will lay me down by still water While my enemies run from me
They gonna run Run from me You will see See them run Far away From me
Take me on up to Zion Think I gotta Psalm Runnin' through my head Bring me over to King David Gonna sing it now for all my friends
Take me on up to Zion Where no harm shall come to me No fire will light upon my cloak And the sons of iniquity
They gonna run Run from me You will see See them run Far away From me
Take me on up to Zion Where I can lay my burdens down Oh everything's on fire Ain't no peace in this crazy town Take me on up to Zion To the secret place in my heart Where even Satan don't dare To stand too long When he sees that temple guard He's gonna run
