Glen Campbell — The Four Horsemen

And I saw the white horse, ridden by a man with bow and arrow And he wore a golden crown and he rode a trail so narrow And he went forth to conquer all the liars, thieves and cheaters All the weavers of illusion; all the bigots and mistreaters And the earth was shakin' like an old man's hand and the sun was black as mud And the oceans moved across the land and the moon became as blood And I saw the red horse and a rider with a saber To take peace from all the earth, for destruction was his labor And he rode out in anger to turn brother against brother With poison for the nations to make them all kill one another And the stars of heaven fell to earth like the fruit of a tree that's shaken By an unkindly wind, to be ever more forsaken And I saw the black horse and the rider with the balance To separate the works of man; his vices from his talents A measure of wheat for a penny, three measures of barley in kind To divide the one from the many, but hurt not the oil and wine And the heavens parted like a scroll, when it is rolled together And the mountains were moved out of place like a whirlwind blows a feather And I saw a pale horse, and Death was riding on him And Hell was right behind him, and no mortal man outshone him The kings of the earth and the mighty men; the glorious and greedy Hid themselves in the blackest hole with the homeless and the needy And some priests and some television preachers lay down with the vile unholy And some senators and movie stars shared a cave with the meek and lowly And they cried to the mountains Fall on us! And hide us from the face of him Fall on us! And hide us from the face Hide us from the face of him Fall on us! And hide us from the face of him Fall on us! And hide us from the face Hide us from the face of him
