Roadway Broken

The earth came alive and the sky came falling
Is my baby there?
The woman I love I can hear her calling
Is my baby there
Bricks and stones no match for the bones
All we need is air
To breathe our brethren back to home
To breathe the love we share

The roadway is broken, the roadway is broken today, 
Ain't no use in trying to get from there to here

The earth came alive and the sky came falling
Is my baby there?
I saw here holdin' court by the open door
Is my baby there?
Bricks and stones no match for the bones
All we need is air
To breathe our brethren back to home
To breathe the love we share

The roadway is broken, the roadway is broken today
Ain't no use in trying to get it back, get it back to the house you love
'Cause it's so hard

The woman I love I can hear her calling, 
Calling to all the streets
She's asking them if they've seen her babies, 
They need some food to eat

And I told her not to go there, I told her not to go
But she go anyway
She was always like that

The roadway is broken, the roadway is broken today
Ain't no use in trying to get it back, get it back to the house you love
'Cause it's so hard

And we are all just hoping that she would return
She was soldier 'til the day she died
And the kids they all alive cause she watch over them
She was a soldier since the day she died
Since the day she died

'Cause roadway is broken, the roadway is broken today
Ain't no use in trying to get it back, get it back to the house you love
'Cause it's so hard
