I saw my old friend Gabriel Down the perimeter ringing the bell I said hello Hey man is there something wrong? Where has everybody gone? I don't know Well I put a rag across my mouth And I went out What are you doing he said to me I'm looking for my company He said don't bother no Next thing you know I took a look Gabe was trying to sell me a book But i got no dough He said check it out it's going cheap Check it out it#s going cheap Ok I'll give it a go I read that book every page And then I put it away Said I don't think so It makes slaves of all of womenkind And corpses of the men And I just don't know And we care a little bit We get scared a little bit Oа those two cold dead eyes That stare a little a bit And we cry a little bit And we get by a little bit Let your tears All come falling down Put me on a big white steed! Ride it it up and down your street! Wrapped up in a crimson coat! Sail me in a great big boat! I'll sail around the waters for you Kill your sons and daughters for you! Put me on a big white horse! Send me down to Banbury Cross! It's okay Joe it's time to go!
