lyrics

Oh my lady lock your door,
Hide away, in the darkness
Oh my lady they are here,
your brother sold you freely
Turn your lights down low, hush your baby silent
Oh my lady they are here
Leave your home behind

Oh my lady it’s too late
Leave your home, leave your home now
See your city lit by fire and the sound of screaming
Hold your baby close, burn what you can’t carry
Oh my lady they are here, leave your home behind

Oh my lady it’s all gone,
To the sound of revolution
Oh my lady cross the sea,
Where your name means nothing
Hold your baby close, hide now in the mountains
Oh my lady don’t back, this is country not yours

The snow came earlier this year
Wrap your babe in rags
feed him blood to keep him warm
Here they come
No forgiveness shall be asked
For none shall be given
Your father’s sins lay on your skin
Now here they come
Hear the banging of their drum

Oh my lady who are you?
Hidden away, hidden away now
Oh my lady don’t you cry, what good will it do you?
And if they find you here,
This I promise only
To raise the baby as my own
And carry your body home
And carry your body home
