Alternate studio version
Once we were kids playing king of the mountain on the end
World came charging up the hill, and we were women, we were men
Yeah, we stood by each other's side, each one fighting for the other
And we swore until we died we'd always be blood brothers
Hoo hoo, hoo-hoo-hoo
Now the hardness of the world ??? slowly grind your world away
Making nothing but a fool's joke out of promises made
It's a long and dirty ride and there ain't much cover
No one running by your side, my blood, my blood brother
Whoa!
Through the houses of the dead past those fallen in their tracks
Always moving ahead and never looking back
Now the moon's dirty light shines 'cross the highway unfurled
And this love burns inside me like the last light in the world
And the night is shining bright like some mystery uncovered
I'll keep moving through the dark with you in my heart, my blood brother
Whoa!
Whoa!
