A man lay dieing in the streets

A thousend people fell down on their knees

Any other day he would have been.....

Preaching

Reaching all the people there

Oh lord lord



But lord knows i can't change what i saw

I say god rest his soul



The memphis battelground was red

Cause blood came pouring from his head

Women and children fallin' down.....

Crying

For the man they loved so well

Oh lord lord

But lord knows i can't change what i saw

I say god rest his soul



(i breake here)

Solo



But lord knows i can't change what i saw

I say god rest his soul



The morning sun will rise again

With all the passions growing thin

What we gonna do when war is come.. and we'r

Dieing

Dieing for the cause i know



(yeah but)

But lord knows i can't change what i saw

Say god rest his soul
