THE WOMACK FAMILY BAND lyrics : "Sisyphus Stone"
of a brother's gun
to the tired billions
beneath one thumb
it's the hardest times
I've ever seen
we are the water
slow to the sea
gotta move that stone...
I was born in Louisiana
but it's not my home
my people there are busy
they're still burning bones
the history of Mississippi
and the race against change
!@#$, there ain't nothin'
gonna save this place
'til we move that stone.
There are mad militias
and men of war
they're milking the minds
a stone to the door
it's the hardest times
we've ever seen
will like the water
will set us free
we gotta move that stone...
