Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
Available on the album Honky Chéeau
There's a river running sweat right through our land
Driven by a man with a bullwhip in his hand
And I've taken just as much as I can stand
Oh we've got to free our brothers from their shackles if we can
Most nights I have to watch my woman cry
Every day I watch the colonel smile
His painted ladies riding in from town
I swear one day I'm gonna burn that whore house to the ground
Slave, slave
To fight the violence we must be brave
Hold on strong to the love God gave
Slave
There's a rumour of a war that's yet to come
That may free our families and our sons
It may lay green lands to barren wastes
The price of release is a bitter blow to face

Look around here on youtube, you'll find a few females thinking the same. No, seriously. ''Hot'' may be a bit too far fetched (it was late in the night ;-) ), but I dig his dark eyes without the glasses, and the gap between his teeth has something cute... I'm European, I heard we are cooler about bad teeth. *g*) Actually, 'cute' might be the better word, let's say the music he did in the Seventies and early Eighties is absolutely hot. And that's something I'll say at every day or night time.

Wow, I can't ever recall any female (adult or teen) thinking that Elton was a hot looking guy. At best, they might have found him appealing as a songwriter and performer but never in the appearance dept. He's exceptionally talented as a musician but IMO, one of the most physically unattractive men on the planet.....The bald head, obesity, short stature, dental issues, bloat, and terrible fashion choices ruined any sex appeal...Kudos to you for not being shallow

Actually, I find him attractive. I can appreciate his looks, anyway. He's not my type at all [besides the gay part] but he's certainly not homely.
