Download mp3 - Bullet the blue sky (live) : U2
Introduced by Jimi Hendrix’ treatment of The Star Spangled Banner
This live performance (20th December 1987) adds these words at the end:
So
I’m back in my hotel room
With John Coltrane and A Love Supreme
In the next room I hear some woman scream out
That her lover’s turning off, turning on the television
And I can’t tell the difference between ABC News, Hill Street Blues
And a preacher on the old time gospel hour
Stealing money from the sick and the old
Well the God I believe in isn’t short of cash, mister!
I feel a
long way from the hills of San Salvador
Where the sky is ripped open
And the rain pours through a gaping wound
Pelting the women and children
Pelting the women and children
Who run - who run into the arms of America
