lirik lagu the black lillies – shepherd’s song

Loading...

i left my home in the year of ‘21
blamed for the k!llin’, a crime i had not done
i’ll live no more in texas but the hills of tennessee
goodbye wife and children, never more to see
on the banks of the river a shepherd’s wages paid
shelter food and clothing, honest work each day
at night i hear their voices sayin’ “where have you gone?
paw we’re cold and hungry, don’t let us be alone.”
chorus
but i cannot go back, i’ll not return
there’s a hangman waiting, a sheriff’s warrant served
and if i was a freeman in the state that i was born
i’d go home to texas never more to roam
verse 3
in the seventh season the fates came to me
sayin’ “your love has remarried and you must let her be
the children they are taken care though never you will see.”
d-mn the man who cursed that land, never i’ll be free

(chorus)

(solo over verse)
sunshine stirrin’, youth but a memory
a letter came to my door though i could not read
said “the man who done the k!llin’, he has now confessed
truth came from a death bed, your case is now dismissed.”
but i cannot go back, i’ll not return
there’s no one waiting, memories unearned
and if i was a young man in the state that i was born
i’d go home to texas never more to roam

(tag last line of chorus)
