Lyrics

Refugee Moan

If there's a train that will take me there
To take me where I can live in peace
Oh, Lord, take me onboard, don't leave me here
Let me ride that train

If there's a ship gettin' ready to sail
Let me stand at the rail when it pulls from shore
Deliver me from this place I know
Desecrated by the madness of war

If there's a road to a peaceful country
Where the people have pity on a homeless man
Lord, make that highway my way
Make it my road to the Promise Land

Send a prayer to provide protection
For all the people in the world just like me
Lord, I'll pray each and every day
Charge my connection, Lord, help me pray

If there's a day in our tomorrow
When fear and sorrow is all gone
Send us a song to keep us strong
Lord, keep us singin' as we carry on

Hmm
Hmm-mm
Oh
