The Stray Birds - The Bells lyrics

The Bells Maya De Vitry Rock-a-bye baby, Bethlehem Stable There's a dog-earred Bible on the kitchen table Of a Mississippi morning, cotton plantation And a Tarrytown underground railroad station Abraham rises on a day decided All six foot four in a house divided Cries like he knows what the wind is bringing Now the trees are down but the birds are singing Muddy waters . keep on rolling And the bells are cracked . but they keep on tolling Muddy waters . keep on rolling And the bells are cracked . but they keep on tolling Lead Bus pulls up, Montgomery station She reads the law like an invitation The oil is low but the lamp is burning And the Wheels are busted but they keep on turning Break my bread, share my water Take my hand and call me brother The kingdom stands, the walls are leaning At the edge of the water a King is dreaming Muddy waters . keep on rolling And the bells are cracked . but they keep on tolling Muddy waters . keep on rolling And the bells are cracked . but they keep on tolling Lead Muddy waters . keep on rolling And the bells are cracked . but they keep on tolling Muddy waters . keep on rolling And the bells are cracked . but they keep on tolling Rock-a-bye baby, Bethlehem Stable There's a dog-earred Bible on the kitchen table Of a Mississippi morning, cotton plantation And a Tarrytown underground railroad station
