Odetta
long ago far away
Select language to translate this lyric
To preach of priest and brotherhood
What might be the cost
the man he did it long ago
And they hung him on a cross
Long ago
Far away
Those things don't happen nowadays
the chains of slaves they dragged the grounds
With heads and hearts hung low
But it was during the Lincoln's time and
It was long ago
Long ago
Far away
things like that don't happen nowadays
