Phil Ochs - William Moore Lyrics
Pre>amWalkin down an alabama roadRememberin what the Bible toldD g d amWalkin with a letter in his handD g d amDreaming of another southern landAmWalkin down an alabama roadAnd he went by the name of william mooreNow what are you doing william mooreD g amWhy the letter in your hand?D g amTheres only one southern landAnd he went by the name of william mooreAm em amWhat price the glory of one man?C fWhat price the glory of one man?C emWhat price the hopes,F gWhat price the dreams,C f g cAnd what price the glory of one man?Remembering what his grandfather doneFought for the south in 61A hundred years have passed by since thenNow moore is fighting for the south againRemembering what his grandfather doneRemembering the time in world war twoAnd the south pacific island that he knewRemembering the young men that he killedAnd the praying that the guns of hate be stilledRemembering the time in world war twoWhat price the glory of one man?What price the glory of one man?What price the hopes,What price the dreams,And what price the glory of one man?And they shot him on the alabama roadForgot about what the Bible toldThey shot him with that letter in his handAs though he were a dog and not a manAnd they shot him on the alabama roadDid you say it was a shame when he died?Did you say he was fool because he tried?Did you wonder who had fired the gun?Did you know that it was you who fired the gun?Did you say it was a shame when he died?What price the glory of one man?What price the glory of one man?What price the hopes,What price the dreams,And what price the glory of one man?/pre>
