It felt like Friday it felt like Sunday |
|
We followed on foot such a very long way |
|
Back to the Red river valley |
|
We read the gospels |
|
and rang the church bells |
|
we prayed for the soul |
|
In the capitol |
|
The capitol city |
|
Let his hands fall gently to his side |
|
No body rose up |
|
to call the big joke up |
|
Felt like the candles had all blown out |
|
Back to the red river valley |
|
We walked behind him to hang his halo |
|
To hang his cross |
|
on the river gallows |
|
In the capitol |
|
The capitol city |
|
Let his hands fall gently to his sides |
|
(call & response) |
|
Lift him up |
|
Carry him |
|
hang his head up |
|
and let the choir sing |
|
Back the Red river valley (x6) |
