Steve Taylor - A Principled Man Lyrics

A Principled Man

Under a flag
they sword a bond
caught under fire they ran
are you the one
standing your ground?
are you a principled man?

Followers fall
blinded by kings
lost in the lie of the land
are you the one
sworn to be true?
are you a principled man?

Now...begin
come alongside it
seize the wind
come along, ride it
one day it will be you believing
there is a principled man

Who goes there?
do you belond, lad?
you know there
is a new dawn, and
one day to say stick with me, baby
I am a principled man

Many's the man
grounded by greed
leaning on power and land
show me the one
lost in the stars
show me a principled man

Now...begin
seize the wind

Who goes there?
do you belond, lad?
you know there
is a new dawn, and
one day to say stick with me, baby
I am a principled man

Bleeding and hushed
hung between thieves
there the foundation began
are you the one
taking your cross?
are you a principled man?
