Gentry Songtext
von Chris Garneau

I used to go
To the field, to the sea
I used to smell
The lilac and the tree
I had a voice
And I had eyes
I had eyes

Born in a lot
In Gentry, Tennessee
Thousands were caught
In a lifetime guarantee
We had no eyes
We had no voice
We had no voices
But we used to
Have a voice

Voices


And we used to
Have eyes
We saw the light
We saw the light
We saw the night

And we used to
Have a voice
We sang in flight
In flight
In plight

We sang in plight


Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh-ohoh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh

I used to have a voice
A song
