  And as we wind on down the road
  Our shadows taller than our souls
  There walks a lady we all know
  Who shines white light and wants to show
  How everything still turns to gold
  And if you listen very hard
  The tune will come to you at last
  When all are one and one is all
  To be a rock and not to roll
