Stand Tall
Barry Marler
1990 Cabbage Flake Music (BMI)
Take a big man, cut him down to size
While a small man had them hypnotized
And a holy man with holy eyes
Told sugar lies
Take a high priest, stand him on a wall
And he'll preach and preach about a graceful fall
Everything he sees is gonna fall
Down with that wall
Stand tall, closer to Heaven
Got to stand like a giant man if at all
Don't fall, this is forever
And no man, no plan can catch you if you fall
Stand tall
Where the power and the glory reign
For an hour in a man's domain
Like a flower blooming in the rain
Its worth the pain
Like the ocean they will rise and fall
Slow motion, they will freeze and thaw
For a token they will lose it all
There's just one law
Stand tall, closer to Heaven
Got to stand like a giant man if at all
Don't fall, this is forever
And no man, no plan can catch you if you fall
Stand tall
Stand tall
Sitting at this feast, we hear our own hearts beat
A broken sermon preached
From a rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief
Stand tall, closer to Heaven
Got to stand like a giant man if at all
Don't fall, this is forever
And no man, no plan can catch you if you fall
Stand tall
Stand tall
