Leave Me Praying Lyrics
All those before the father's story
The father's story of boats across the sea
Of boats that would turn to armies and sell the land
Bulldozer behind the long, long Trail of Tears
And I would say must be like [?]
Heaven I call it home
Wished so long and tired has pushed
Will this wave of evil not cease until we're gone
Well heaven I know must be like this
And I will call it home
So it was said to these our new neighbors
You must move on or we will bury you
So it was said to these our new neighbors
You must move on or we will bury you
How could it be with two eyes, two arms, a smile
Oh mother, father, sisters, and brothers their style
That we could find such devastating differences grow
To cut down the grass at the ankle, let the roots die [?] rain, rain, rain
See man heaven would leave no hand untouched
Plain I will call it home
So it was said to these our new neighbors
You must move on or we will bury you
So it was said to these our new neighbors
You must move on or we will bury you
This land is your land, this land is my land
From California to the New York islands
From the Redwood forest to the Gulf Stream waters
And this land was made
[wailing]
I dreamed of [?]
[?]
I dreamed away
[?]
And I dreamed a melody
Dreamed away
And I dreamed of a mother
And I dreamed of a father
And I dreamed of my mother
And I dreamed of the fallen
And I dream of the children
And I dream of a Trail of Tears
And I dream of no other
And why am I victor here
And [?] no other
Is it always right will win
[??] my mother
[?] the right will win
[???]
