CHORUS:
|
You gotta lift up every stone now sister
|
Gotta lift up every stone now sister
|
Gotta lift up every stone now sister
|
Gotta clear this field and build that wall
|
|
He was the prince of the county to the manor born
|
The sheets were bloody and dirty and torn
|
Nobody saw nothing, not out this way
|
And they probably won't until the judgement day
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
There was a mighty whispering down at the church
|
About the son of the father of a woman got hurt
|
They were looking all over for somebody to pay
|
And that's you and me sister now every day
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
Now the sun is bloody red
|
And when it's gone somebody'll be dead
|
Don't you cry a tear for me
|
Because I did what I could just to be free yeah
|
You gotta lift up every stone now sister
|
'cause one is the truth and the other's a lie
|
You gotta lift up every stone now sister
|
'till they tear down the wall to make you cry
|
|
CHORUS TWICE
|
|
We gotta clear this field and build that wall
|
We gotta...
|

Lift Up Every Stone
