Lyrics by Michael Schøn Poulsen
Music by Michael Schøn Poulsen, Volbeat
Dear wind of Mississippi can you call him by name?
I have followed his wings on a sunny day
I like to believe he's the chosen one
I like to believe he's the fallen one
Dead but rising!
I raise the fist with power and fate
and wishing that his claws will grab on to my hand
I like to believe he's the chosen one
I like to believe he's the fallen one, ohoho
Dead but rising!
I have been to the end of waters
I have been to the end of earth
I've been over mountains and riding the storms
Dear son your words have reached me
and for that I can carry on
I'll guide you in spirit today I'll be home
I like to believe he's the chosen one
I like to believe he's the fallen one
The rebirth of man heals a bleeding heart
The eagle of kings wears my fathers soul
Dead but rising!
