Bon Jovi ~ Dry County


Across the border they turn Water into wine Some say it’s the devil’s blood They’re squeezing from the vine Some say it’s a saviour In these hard and desperate times For me it helps me to forget That we’re just born to die I came here like so many did To find the better life To find my piece of easy street To finally be alive And I know nothing good comes easy All good things take some time I made my bed I lie in it To die in it’s the crime You can’t help but prosper When the street are paved with gold They say the oil wells ran deeper here Than anybody’s known I packed up on my wife and kid And left them back at home Now there’s nothing in this paydirt The ghost are all I know Now the oil’s gone The money’s gone And the jobs are gone Still we’re hangin’ on Down in dry county They’re swimming in the sand Praying for some holy water To wash the sins from off our hands Here in dry county The promise has run dry Where nobody cries And no one’s getting out of here alive In the blessed name of Jesus I heard a preacher say That we are God’s children And that he’d be back someday And I hoped that he knew Something as he drank his cup of wine I didn’t have too good of a feeling As I head out to the night I cursed the sky to open I begged the clouds for rain I prayed to God for water For this burning in my veins It was like my soul’s on fire And I had to watch the flames All my dreams went up in ashes And my future blew away Now the oil’s gone The money’s gone And the jobs are gone Still we’re hangin’ on Down in dry county They’re swimming in the sand Praying for some holy water To wash the sins from off our hands Here in dry county The promise has run dry Where nobody cries And no one’s getting out of here alive Men spend their whole lives Waiting praying for their big reward But it seems sometimes The payoff leaves you feeling Like a dirty whore If I could choose the way I’ll die Make it by the gun or knife ‘Couse the other way there’s too much pain night after night after night… Down in dry county They’re swimming in the sand Praying for some holy water To wash the sins from off our hands Here in dry county The promise has run dry Where nobody cries And no one’s getting out of here alive more free lyrics

Across the border they turn
Water into wine
Some say it’s the devil’s blood
They’re squeezing from the vine
Some say it’s a saviour
In these hard and desperate times
For me it helps me to forget
That we’re just born to die

I came here like so many did
To find the better life
To find my piece of easy street
To finally be alive
And I know nothing good comes easy
All good things take some time
I made my bed I lie in it
To die in it’s the crime

You can’t help but prosper
When the street are paved with gold
They say the oil wells ran deeper here
Than anybody’s known
I packed up on my wife and kid
And left them back at home
Now there’s nothing in this paydirt
The ghost are all I know

Now the oil’s gone
The money’s gone
And the jobs are gone
Still we’re hangin’ on

Down in dry county
They’re swimming in the sand
Praying for some holy water
To wash the sins from off our hands
Here in dry county
The promise has run dry
Where nobody cries
And no one’s getting out of here alive

In the blessed name of Jesus
I heard a preacher say
That we are God’s children
And that he’d be back someday
And I hoped that he knew
Something as he drank his cup of wine
I didn’t have too good of a feeling
As I head out to the night

I cursed the sky to open
I begged the clouds for rain
I prayed to God for water
For this burning in my veins
It was like my soul’s on fire
And I had to watch the flames
All my dreams went up in ashes
And my future blew away

Now the oil’s gone
The money’s gone
And the jobs are gone
Still we’re hangin’ on

Down in dry county
They’re swimming in the sand
Praying for some holy water
To wash the sins from off our hands
Here in dry county
The promise has run dry
Where nobody cries
And no one’s getting out of here alive

Men spend their whole lives
Waiting praying for their big reward
But it seems sometimes
The payoff leaves you feeling
Like a dirty whore
If I could choose the way I’ll die
Make it by the gun or knife
‘Couse the other way there’s too much pain
night after night after night…

Down in dry county
They’re swimming in the sand
Praying for some holy water
To wash the sins from off our hands
Here in dry county
The promise has run dry
Where nobody cries
And no one’s getting out of here alive

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
