I have stood on the changing ground
I have walked like a man in chains
I tried hard to do my best
But I could not make my way
Oh, trouble was on my tail
And he followed me like a hound
Till I moved one step
On to glory
And off of that changing ground
Changing ground
Changing ground
Changing ground
I have moved one step
On to glory
And off of that changing ground
What once was sooner
Now is later
The first one in
Now is last
The hero then is now a traitor
What once was still now is fast
I have stood on the changing ground
I have walked like a man in chains
I tried hard to do my best
But I could not make my way
Because trouble was on my tail
And he followed me like a hound
Till I moved one step
On to glory
And off of that changing ground
I have moved one step
On to glory
And off of that changing ground
Changing ground
Changing ground
