Took Them Away |
| Nicholas invited me to visit at the farm |
| We were playing in the yard |
| I saw them in the barn |
| White and black together sat |
| I just stood and stared |
| How was I to know what it all meant |
| Mr Goldreich and his wife were generous to me |
| David in blue overalls came in to serve the tea |
| I had seen him in the barn, something wasn’t right |
| As I told my father late that night |
| So they came in a dry-cleaning van and they took them away, took them away |
| One dog and a dozen strong men and they took them away, took them away |
| On that Thursday according to plan |
| They took them away in a dry-cleaning van |
| I stood and watched by the side of the road |
| How could I know? |
| How could I know? |
| How was I to understand? |
| How to make it right? |
| As I ask our father every night |
| So they came in a dry-cleaning van and they took them away, took them away |
| One dog and a dozen strong men and they took them away, took them away |
| On that Thursday according to plan |
| They took them away in a dry-cleaning van |
| I stood and watched by the side of the road |
| How could I know? |
| How could I know? |
