"I Hear Them All" Lyrics:
I hear the crying of the hungry in the deserts where they're wandering.
Hear them crying out for heaven's own benevolence upon them.
Hear destructive power prevailing, I hear fools falsely hailing.
To the crooked wits of tyrants when they call.

I hear them all
I hear them all
I hear them all

I hear the sounds of tearing pages and the roar of burning paper.
All the crimes in acquisitions turn to air and ash and vapor.
And the rattle of the shackle far beyond emancipators.
And the loneliest who gather in their stalls.

I hear them all
I hear them all
I hear them all

So while you sit and whistle Dixie with your money and your power.
I can hear the flowers a-growin in the rubble of the towers.
I hear leaders quit their lying
I hear babies quit their crying.

I hear soldiers quit their dying, one and all.

I hear them all
I hear them all
I hear them all

I hear the tender words from Zion, I hear Noah's waterfall.
Hear the gentle lamb of Judah sleeping at the feet of Buddha.
And the prophets from Elija to the old Paiute Wovoka.
Take their places at the table when they're called.

I hear them all
I hear them all
I hear them all
I hear them all
I hear them all
I hear them all
I hear them all
I hear them all
I hear them all

  • i swear everytime i go on youtube the comments under every video are political, shut up and enjoy the music

  • @94btown...the 1% owns the american government and all the governments on the planet...i agree the gov't fucked up a lot of things but the 1% had their hand in the cookie jar the whole time...i don't see anybody on unemplyoment buying senators and congressmen and presidents

  • @OldSkoolThrasher666 its not the 1% that needs to hear the country, it's the government, they are the ones screwing up the country

  • @joodante either way I can dig what you're saying man

  • @trainrecked I know, WTF??!!! COME BACK, WILLIE!!!

  • YEEEEEEEE HAW This ones for the lil guy bitches!!

  • please please please be at Bonnaroo!!

  • @TheMejohnsonhvac Buddha isn't a "stone god," he was a religious figure whose teachings are the basis of Buddhism (also a notable figure in Hinduism and other Eastern religions).

    The whole point of that last verse is to portray a peaceful image. Not only can that be found in a sleeping animal at someone's feet, but also with two big religious figures sitting at the same table (among others).

    Then again, I could be over-analyzing this. It could just be that "Judah" rhymes with "Buddha."
