James Taylor - Belfast To Boston (God's Rifle) |
[00:37.17] |
|
[00:39.17] |
There are rifles buried in the countryside |
[00:44.59] |
For the rising of the moon |
[00:50.28] |
May they lie there long forgotten |
[00:55.98] |
Till they rust away into the ground |
[01:01.94] |
Who will bend this ancient hatred |
[01:07.97] |
Will the killing to an end |
[01:13.99] |
Who will swallow long injustice |
[01:19.90] |
Take the devil for a country man |
[01:26.02] |
Who will say "this far no further |
[01:32.10] |
Oh lord, if I die today" |
[01:37.57] |
|
[02:01.22] |
Send no weapons no more money |
[02:07.35] |
Send no vengeance across the seas |
[02:13.37] |
Just the blessing of forgiveness |
[02:19.29] |
For my new countryman and me |
[02:23.56] |
|
[02:25.47] |
Missing brothers, martyred fellows |
[02:31.00] |
Silent children in the ground |
[02:36.96] |
Could we but hear them |
[02:40.09] |
Could they not tell us |
[02:42.99] |
"Time to lay the rifle down" |
[02:48.13] |
|
[02:49.12] |
Who will say this far no further |
[02:55.02] |
Oh Lord, if I die today. |
