Nilsson Harry - Ambush, Nilsson Schmillson lyrics

The lamp that lights the way Is a light from yesterday The drum which leads the way Is a sound from yesterday The road is filled with shadows Of a million living leaves With darkness all around us And not a friend in sight We sang a song together To help us through the night The song was sung with spirit But soft, and like a choir And as the others sang along Our voices lifted higher We sang until we reached the bridge We crossed, then saw the wire But by the time we stopped the song The enemy opened fire Now we aint gonna sing that song no more Aint gonna sing that song no more Just dont pay to sing no more Specially when your in a war, a war Now this time through, we want everybody to listen to the punch line, Alright, Alright. Alright? Alright! The song was sung with spirit But soft and like a choir But by the time we stopped the song The enemy opened fire Now we aint gonna sing that song no more Aint gonna sing that song no more Just dont pay to sing no more Specially when your in a war, war
