alex & the people - redcoats lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
he shines the barrel of his forty+five
the sun is shining down on people outside
he lied to himself and his mother will cry
but he’s only got seven more

he walked with a limp since the sixth grade
they laughed and sneered, a clown on parade
now he sits in his room with the rage he made
with the pieces laying ‘cross the floor

[verse 2]
he was on his knees his heart lost in song
a child on the way, oh, it wouldn’t be long
tiny feet beside, they were singing along
prayin’ peace till the peace was gone

joy filled the pews as the people swayed
till dark ripped through, evil serenade
they prayed for the end but the crying remained
till there was nothing to cry for

[chorus]
the redcoats aren’t coming anymore anymore
the redcoats aren’t coming anymore
the redcoats aren’t coming anymore anymore
so what are these guns for?

[verse 3]
how many brothers have to lose their lives?
we’ve got motherless children and fatherless wives
you talk to the heavens and they showed you a sign
but is their crying easy to ignore?

[chorus]
the redcoats aren’t coming anymore anymore
the redcoats aren’t coming anymore
the redcoats aren’t coming anymore anymore
so what are these guns for?
so what are these guns for?
so what are these guns for?
