O Daughter of Babylon
At the Armagosa River On the bank we sat down Yeah, we wept as we talked of forsaking our town I hung my guitar in the boughs of a tree And cried a while more as I remembered thee The boss wants a song So he shouts to the gang He laughs as we strike up a rhythm with chains But, how can we sing the Lord's song in this land? If I forget thee, Sacramento Strike this harp from my hand If I don't recall that city as my greatest joy Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com The songs of my Father On my toungue will cloy The bossman don't care about my shackle sores He laughs again, and orders us to sing a bit more When I'm free, I swear I'll burn this place to the ground I'll ride through its streets and gun all its folks down O Daughter of Babylon, I'll soon pay you back The blood of your children will paint your streets black Rejoicing, I'll drink from those rivers of gore As I dance to the wails of the Great Scarlet Whore
