The devil rides on horseback through this little town
Rounding up the old folks and stickin' 'em in the ground
People light their smoke stacks in this little town
Burning up the old folk's belongings by the pound

Oh my God, we've killed our only son
Oh my God, what have we done?

History waits for no one in this little town
Teach you sons and daughters the time before the ground
History waits for no one in this little town
Dreamin's the only place where the evidence can be found

Oh my God, we've killed our only son
Oh my God, what have we done?

I used to be always on the run
Runnin' from nothin' but my only blood line
And I am afraid the ones that we want are gone

I used to be always on the run
Runnin' from nothin' but my only blood line
And I am afraid the ones that we want are gone

'Cause oh my God, we've killed our only son
Oh my God, what have we done?

Teach your sons and daughters
Dream, it's gonna be okay

Teach your sons and daughters
Dream, it's gonna be okay

Teach your sons and daughters
Dream, it's gonna be okay

Teach your sons and daughters
Dream, it's gonna be okay
