John Parish - Bitter Branches lyrics

Bitter branches spreading out There's none more bitter than the wood Into the wide world it grows Twisting under soldiers' feet Standing in lines and the damp earth underneath Holding up their rifles high Holding their young wives who wave goodbye Hold up the clear gla**, look and see Soldiers standing and the roots twist underneath Their young wives with white hands wave goodbye Their arms as bitter branches spreading into the world Wave goodbye, they wave goodbye Wave goodbye, they wave goodbye Wave goodbye, wave goodbye They wave goodbye, wave goodbye
