Bobby Long All My Brothers
Sleeping through the day time like a child Upright through the nightime running wild Thinking I will never be as strong As the day is long
I saw the coward day the sun ...son Hiding in the house where we belong I saw the blood flow red and it ran long And all my brothers
It’s a swift turning clock we travel on From boy to man from four to one??? Some of us who rest and grow Don’t need to know Don’t need to know
I still hear them all summer long Will they let me join them one day I still hear them all summer long Will they turn me away
We’ve lost 3 fighting booker in virginia One came back with a body full of holes I wouldn’t let my mother come and see him All down in blood and gold It’s a long lonely night we gaze upon When all the stars are dead and gone The moonlight shines on all our heads And to the west, and to the west
I still hear them all summer long Will they let me join them one day I still hear them all summer long Will they turn me away, away, away, away I still hear them all summer long Will they let me join them one day I still hear them al summer long Will they turn me away, away, away, away
