Artist/Band: The Band
Lyrics for Song: To Kingdom Come
Lyrics for Album: Music From Big Pink [1968]



Forefather pointed to kingdom come

Sadly told his only son

Just be careful what you do

"Robbie Lick"

It all comes back on you



False witness spread the news

Somebody's gonna lose

Either she or me or you

Nothing we can do



Don't you say a word

Or reveal a thing you've learned

Time will tell you well

If you truly, truly fell



Tarred and feathered, yea

Thistles and thorns

One or the other

He kindly warns



Now you look out the window tell me

What do you see?

I see a golden calf pointing

Back at me



I been sitting in here for so darn long

Waitin' for the end to come along

Holy roaster on the brink

Take a chance, swim or sink



False witness, cast an evil eye

said I cannot tell a lie

Haints and saints don't bother me

I'm not alone you see



Don't you say a word

Or reveal a thing you've learned

Time will tell you well

If you truly, truly fell
