El-El Israel Songtext
von The High Windows

Once on a mountain a boy had a dream
David, the Shepard, asleep by a stream
Soldiers were cheering and calling his name
David left the sheep and a soldier he became

El el Israel
El el Israel
El el Israel
El el Israel

Down in the valley the army stood still
Everyone watching the man on the hill
Soldiers were trembling and saying his name
David was a boy but a soldier he became

El el Israel
El el Israel
El el Israel
El el Israel


Goliath the mighty alone on a hill
Shouting his name to the race he would kill
David came running and shouting his name
David was a boy but a soldier he became

El el Israel
El el Israel
El el Israel
El el Israel

Soldiers looked down from the west to the east
David the Shepard Goliath the beast
David alone with the beast he must tame
Just a Shepard boy but a soldier he became

El el Israel
El el Israel
El el Israel
El el Israel

David was waiting a boy on his own
Flossing his sling and then picked up a stone
Struck down Goliath his blood ran like rain
David was a boy but a soldier he became


El el Israel
El el Israel
El el Israel
El el Israel

El el Israel
El el Israel
El el Israel
El el Israel

El el Israel
El el Israel
El el Israel
El el Israel
