the zombies - butcher's tale (live) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
a butcher yes that was my trade
but the king’s shilling is now my fee
a butcher i may as well have stayed
for the slaughter that i see

[verse 2]
and the preacher in his pulpit
sermon: “go and fight, do what is right”
but he don’t have to hear these guns
and i’ll bet he sleeps at night

[chorus]
and i
and i can’t stop shaking
my hands won’t stop shaking
my arms won’t stop shaking
my mind won’t stop shaking
i want to go home
please let me go home
go home

[verse 3]
and i have seen a friend of mine
hang on the wire like some rag toy
then in the heat the flies come down
and cover up thе boy
[verse 4]
and the flies come down in gommеcourt
thiepval, mametz wood, and french verdun
if the preacher he could see those flies
wouldn’t preach for the sound of guns

[chorus]
and i
and i can’t stop shaking
my hands won’t stop shaking
my arms won’t stop shaking
my mind won’t stop shaking
i want to go home
please let me go home
go home
