Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
Available on the album Honky Chéeau
I have to say my friends
This road goes a long, long way
And if we're going to find the end
We're gonna need a helping hand
I have to say my friends
We're looking for a light ahead
In the distance a candle burns
Salvation keeps the hungry children fed
It's gotta take a lot of salvation
What we need are willing hands
You must feel the sweat in your eyes
You must understand salvation
A chance to put the devil down
Without the fear of hell
Salvation spreads the gospel
Elton John - Salvation (1972) Honky Chateau (04:01)
I have to say my friends This road goes a long, long way And if we're going to find the end We're
gonna need a helping hand I have to say my friends We're looking for a light ahead In the distance a
candle burns Salvation keeps the hungry children fed It's gotta take a lot of salvation What we need
are willing hands You must feel the sweat in your eyes You must understand salvation A chance to put
the devil down Without the fear of hell Salvation spreads the gospel round And free you from ...
I was 13 years old when I saw this movie with my cousin Fer and my grandma! She took us to the movie thinking it was for kids, because the title "friends" lol

I just wonder why this song is not as popular as Elton John's other songs. This song is probably one of his best !!! Today's generation sure is missing a lot in terms of music quality.

Thank you, Thad, for introducing me to this movie and soundtrack and many other wonderful works of music that I probably wouldn't have experienced, without you.

How funny, I can sing the whole song from memory of 30 years ago! I wore this album out playing it until my brothers and sisters were screaming for me to stop ,but I caught them singing it afterwards when they thought I was not listening. Thank you for this great memory.
