John Britt Daniel, Alex Fischel
(One, two, one, two, three, four)
You took off in the dead of night
But before you did
Got your hair combed right, yeah
The neighborhood watch knows the score
And they're knocking at your door
Let 'em knock some more
They're saying you need a little protection
But following the leader
Gonna turn you off the religion
It's coming down
The hardest cut
World wars in your mind
Long day into night
The hardest cut
We live on a knife
Here it come now
Here it come now
Here it is the hardest cut
I took off in the dead of night
But before I did
Got my affairs in order and my boots on
The hallelujah choir needs the score
And they're knocking at my door
Let 'em knock some more
They'll say I need a little direction
But following the leader
Gonna turn me off the religion
