作词 : UB Forty | |
Once upon a time | |
And not so long ago | |
When things were much more simple | |
And time would travel slow | |
There came a righteous stranger | |
With a bible in his hand | |
To educate the sinners | |
And liberate their land | |
CHORUS | |
The sins of the fathers | |
Are visited from old | |
In a never ending circle | |
Of people bought & sold | |
So the wretched of the earth | |
Will huddle from the cold | |
As the ship of fools goes sailing | |
On an ocean black as gold | |
So come & sit beside me | |
And let my tale unfold | |
Of a land of milk & honey | |
Where the truth must not be told | |
As men of rhyme & reason | |
Let the devil take their soul | |
For greed & fame & fortune | |
And a river black as gold | |
CHORUS | |
And all the non-believers | |
Were hiding from the light | |
As a thousand burning crosses | |
Were scattered in the night | |
The thieves & the vagabonds | |
Were sinking in the sand | |
As the righteous lord & master | |
Stretches out a helping hand | |
CHORUS | |
And those who had to suffer | |
The sick, the young, the old | |
Were sacrificed to fortune | |
And left out in the cold | |
So in this new arrangement | |
The leaders sold their soul | |
For bangles, beads & baubles | |
And a river black as gold | |
CHORUS |
