Joe Walsh › Lyrics › Turn to Stone

Hey now, the well run dry
Pages of your book on fire
Read the writing on the wall

Hoe down, it's a show-down
Everywhere you look, we're fighting
Hear the call

And you know it's gettin' stronger
I can't last very much longer
Turn to stone

Well, there's a change in the wind
You know the signs don't lie
Such a strange feelin' and I don't know why
It's takin' such a long time

Backyard people and they work all day
Tired of the speeches and the way
That the reasons keep changin'
Just to make the words rhyme

And you know it's gettin' stronger
Can't make 'em run much longer
Turn to stone

And you know it's gettin' stronger
Can't last very much longer
Turn to stone
