POW Blues Songtext
von Ian Noe
POW Blues Songtext
They bring our food in the morning
They throw it at our feet
You know it′s foul and it's foreign
But a man′s gotta eat
They take the time out to tease us
Around and 'round, they crow
I keep pleading to Jesus
When will they let us go?
Well, I remember the sunshine
The way it hit my face
And I've been longin′ for sunshine
Since I′ve been in this place
Why it's as dark as a dungeon
The rats have claimed the floor
They keep me up with their scurryin′
And I can't take it no more
So, I close my eyes to roam
Just strolling over memories
Tryin′ to catch a glimpse of home
So take me back to the country
Down where the river bends
I don't care how I get there
Just let this nightmare end
Throw me out in the ocean
On unforgiving waves
I′ll take my chances a-floatin'
Over rottin' in this cage
And I close my eyes to roam
Just strollin′ over memories
Tryin′ to catch a glimpse of home
Just strolling over memories
Tryin' to catch a glimpse of home
They throw it at our feet
You know it′s foul and it's foreign
But a man′s gotta eat
They take the time out to tease us
Around and 'round, they crow
I keep pleading to Jesus
When will they let us go?
Well, I remember the sunshine
The way it hit my face
And I've been longin′ for sunshine
Since I′ve been in this place
Why it's as dark as a dungeon
The rats have claimed the floor
They keep me up with their scurryin′
And I can't take it no more
So, I close my eyes to roam
Just strolling over memories
Tryin′ to catch a glimpse of home
So take me back to the country
Down where the river bends
I don't care how I get there
Just let this nightmare end
Throw me out in the ocean
On unforgiving waves
I′ll take my chances a-floatin'
Over rottin' in this cage
And I close my eyes to roam
Just strollin′ over memories
Tryin′ to catch a glimpse of home
Just strolling over memories
Tryin' to catch a glimpse of home
