What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
A new age is dawning
2
On fewer than expected
3
Business as Usual
4
That's how the headline read
5
Some shaky modern saviors
6
Have now been resurrected
7
In all this excitement
8
You may have been misled
9
People want a miracle
10
They say Oh Lord, can't you see us?
11
We're tryin' to make a livin' down here
12
And keep the children fed
13
But, from little dark motel rooms
14
To Six Flags over Jesus
15
How are the mighty fallen
16
So the Bible said
17
You don't have to pray to a little tin god
18
Step out of the way for a little tin god
19
You might fear the reaper, fear the rod
20
But you never have to get down on your knees
21
You don't have to holler, please, please
22
No, you never have to get down on your knees
23
For a little tin god
24
The cowboy's name was Jingo
25
And he heard that there was trouble
26
So in a blaze of glory
27
He rode out of the west
28
No one was ever certain
29
What it was that he was sayin'
30
But they loved it when he told them
31
They were better than the rest
32
But you don't have to pray to a little tin god
33
Step out of the way for a little tin god
34
You might hate the system, hate the job
35
But you never have to get down on your knees
36
You don't have to holler, please, please
37
No, you never have to get down on your knees
38
For a little tin god
39
Throw down a rope from heaven
40
And lead the flock to water
41
The man in the middle would have you think
42
That you have no other choice
43
But to wander in the wilderness
44
Of all the upturned faces
45
If you stop and listen long enough
46
You will hear your own small voice
47
But you don't have to pray to a little tin god
48
Step out of the way for a little tin god
49
You might fear the reaper, fear the rod
50
But you never have to get down on your knees
51
You don't have to holler, please, please
52
No, you never have to get down on your knees
53
Never have to holler, please, please
54
You never have to get down on your knees
55
You never have to holler, please, please
56
You never have to get down on your knees
57
For a little tin god
