Genesis Hall Lyrics


My father he rides in your ships
And I know he would never mean harm
But to see both sides of a quarrel
Is to judge without hate or loveOh, oh, helpless and slow
And you don't have anywhere to goYou take away homes from the homeless
And leave them to die in the cold
The gypsy who begged for your presents
He will laugh in your face when you're oldOh, oh, helpless and slow
And you don't have anywhere to goWell, one man he drinks up his whiskey
Another he drinks up his wine
And they'll drink till their eyes are red with hate
For those of a different kindOh, oh, helpless and slow
And you don't have anywhere to goWhen the rivers run thicker than trouble
I'll be there at your side in the flood
It was all I could do to keep myself
From taking revenge of bloodOh, oh, helpless and slow
And you don't have anywhere to goOh, oh, helpless and slow
And you don't have anywhere to go

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Fairport Convention is often credited with being one of the first English folk rock bands. Formed in 1967, Fairport rapidly developed from playing cover versions of American 'west coast' music to an individual style which melded rock music with traditional english folk tunes and songs. Like their peers The Byrds, Buffalo Springfield and Jefferson Airplane they were blessed with several considerable individual talents and produced music that -at least initially- was eclectic, as well as exploratory.
