Genesis Hall |
My father he rides with your sheriffs |
And I know he would never mean harm |
But to see both sides of a quarrel |
Is to judge without haste or alarm |
Oh, oh, helpless and slow |
And you don’t have anywhere to go You take away homes from the homeless |
And leave them to die in the cold |
The gypsy who begs for your presents |
He will laugh in your face when you’re old |
Oh, oh, helpless and slow |
And you don’t have anywhere to go Well one man he drinks up his whiskey |
Another he drinks up his wine |
And they’ll drink ‘till their eyes are red with hate |
For those of a different kind |
Oh, oh, helpless and slow |
And you don’t have anywhere to go When the rivers run thicker than trouble |
I’ll be there at your side in the flood |
T’was all I could do to keep myself |
From taking revenge on your blood |
Oh, oh, helpless and slow |
And you don’t have anywhere to go Oh, oh, helpless and slow |
And you don’t have anywhere to go |
