letra de shepherd's song - the black lillies
i left my home in the year of 21
blamed for the k!llin, a crime i had not done
ill 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 shepherds wages paid
shelter food and clothing, honest work each day
at night i hear their voices sayin where have you gone?
paw were cold and hungry, dont let us be alone.
chorus
but i cannot go back, ill not return
theres a hangman waiting, a sheriffs warrant served
and if i was a freeman in the state that i was born
id 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 ill 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, ill not return
theres no one waiting, memories unearned
and if i was a young man in the state that i was born
id go home to texas never more to roam
(tag last line of chorus)
