James Taylor

James Taylor - Belfast to Boston lyrics

There are rifles buried in the countryside for the rising of the moon

May they lie there long forgotten till they rust away into the ground

Who will bend this ancient hatredwill the killing to an end

Who will swallow long injusticetake the devil for a country man

Who will say "this far no furtheroh lordif I die today"

Send no weapons no more money. send no vengeance across the seas

Just the blessing of forgiveness for my new countryman and me

Missing brothersmartyred fellowssilent children in the ground

Could we but hear them could they not tell us

"time to lay god's rifle down"

Who will say this far no furtheroh lordif I die today.
