going going (folkadelphia session) - bartees & the strange fruit lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
sun down you’d find us inside with the lantern on
blood on the doorstep, armor of god
eyes to the savior, the gun in my pocket
waiting for morning to come

[pre*chorus]
come on down and get me
come on down and get me

[chorus: bartees strange]
when you’re gone
when you’re gone
i can tell you’ve always won
so gone, gone
[verse 2]
black folks we dance, when we’re glad, on the tightrope
the women that loved me whipped me with switches
i remember ditches, dodging tornadoes
hoping the cavalry comes
[pre*chorus]
come on down and get me
come on down and get me
come on down and get me

[chorus]
when i’m gone
i’m gone
i could tell you’ve always run
and i’m gone, gone, gone

[verse 3]
on a base far away
out where it’s hot in the arms of god
there’s a sense that i am still with the men in the pews
beneath plymouth rock

[chorus]
run, and i’m gone
i’m gone
i could tell you’ve always run
and i’m gone, gone
