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. |
| [03:01.14] |
