Testo Genesis Hall - June Tabor
Testo della canzone Genesis Hall (June Tabor), tratta dall'album Beat the Retreat: Songs By Richard Thompson
My father he rides with his sheriffs
And I know he would never mean harm
But to see both sides of the quarrel
Is to judge without hate or alarm
Oh, helpless and slow
And you don't have anywhere to go
You take away homes from the homeless
And you leave them to die in the cold
The gypsy who begged for your favors
He will laugh in your face when you're old
Oh, helpless and slow
And you don't have anywhere to go
When one man he drinks up his whiskey
Another man he drinks up his wine
For they'll drink till their eyes are red with hate
For those of a different kind
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
It's all I could do to keep myself
From taking revenge on your blood
Oh, helpless and slow
And you don't have anywhere to go
