lyrics

Lyrics by Chris Lowe

Old Palestine, your head hangs high
Over long empty homes and a busted streetlight
Old Palestine, you kept your pride
But Davey’s dogwoods have withered and died
And Old Palestine, with your two-faced stare
And your same old train tracks, yah leading nowhere
This town is quicksand, put its pride in its prisons
And it’s only the lucky who get out alive,
Of Old Palestine
And Old Palestine, once upon a time
You had an old opera house, but it was nickeled and dimed
And Old Palestine, holy land is your kind
Different churches every Sunday for the Brown, Black, and white
And Old Palestine, yah your head hangs high
‘Cause you murder your poor, with the law on your side
This town is quicksand, put its pride in its prisons
And it’s only the lucky who get out alive,
Of Old Palestine
You taught our fathers to lie
You taught our mothers to cry
And Old Palestine you said, we’d never get out alive
Of Old Palestine
Well Old Palestine, never paid for you crimes
Gone with the Wind, yah you’re lost in time
