Down In The Churchyard

Lyrics for Down In The Churchyard

There is a man, a tall man Follows no one Out in a storm can he stay warm From all the things that he's done? Oh, the city lights are such pretty lights Can't he move on? Tell him it's alright Sing your song and say that it's alright Say it's alright There is a man, a crippled man Is he a soldier? Can his new wife live out her life The way he told her? Oh, see her pride, I see it burning bright Be his friend and say that's it's alright Shake your fist at him, tell him it's alright Say it's alright Where you have been is not a sin It's where you're going Hurt anyone by what you've done And it starts showing Although you can't complain about the wind and the rain You gather down in the churchyard just the same You want everyone there to wash away the stain It's very plain
