Lyrics
City of Tents Ted Barrett 2009 We are living on the edge of town Keeping our ears close to the ground Praying we don't hear the sound Of beaters running a pack of hounds Sister Mary walks in pale light Gifted with the second sight Sees the end of the coming fight Knows she won't survive the night Sheriff's dogs catch the scent Sweat and fear from the city of tents Tearing through the tenement Lay down at Mary's soft lament: "Oh my children we are one Rainbow shining 'neath the golden sun With the strangers make your peace Pointless hatred must now cease" Coward in the back fires a shot Takes from us the best we've got Dogs take off and he is caught But a single voice gives us thought "Oh my children we are one Rainbow shining 'neath the golden sun With the strangers make your peace Pointless hatred must now cease" We are living on the edge of town Keeping our ears close to the ground Working till we hear the sound Of new friends and their pack of hounds "Oh my children we are one Rainbow shining 'neath the golden sun With the strangers make your peace Pointless hatred must now cease"
