dear reader - took them away lyrics
(verse)
nicholas invited me to visit at the farm
we were playing in the yard,
i saw them in the barn
white and black together sat
i just stood and stared
how was i to know what it all meant?
(verse)
mr. goldreich and his wife were generous to me
david in blue overalls came in to serve the tea
i had seen him in the barn, something wasn’t right
as i told my father late that night
(chorus)
so they came in a dry-cleaning van and they took them away, took them away
one dog and a dozen strong men and they took them away, took them away
on that thursday according to plan
they took them away in a dry-cleaning van
i stood and watched by the side of the road
how could i know?
how could i know?
(bridge)
how was i to understand?
how to make it right?
as i ask our father every night
(chorus)
so they came in a dry-cleaning van and they took them away, took them away
one dog and a dozen strong men and they took them away, took them away
on that thursday according to plan
they took them away in a dry-cleaning van
i stood and watched by the side of the road
how could i know?
how could i know?
