Tombstone Songtext
von The Pogues

The night is dark, the moon is full across the blood-red plain
And every step and every breath brings me nearer home
The spirits watch me on my way
They whisper on the wind
And when the dawn lights up the sky
I′ll see my land again


A hot wind blows the scrub and dust across the barren land
Trees stand bare like skeletons
Then the mountains all torn down
The water holes are dry as bones
No birds are singing now

And faraway a city stands
Tombstones against the sky
Tombstones against the sky
Tombstones against the sky
Tombstones against the sky
