Him who saved me


Him who saved me -- save me again
him who made me -- won't you be my friend
signs of danger -- on the wind
him who saved me -- save me again

Rock-a-bye baby -- on the tree top
I'm a leaf on a tree -- I'm fish on a rock
and I got no arms -- I got no choice
would you sing for me -- 'cause I got no voice
would you cry for me -- would you make them pay
if they cut me down -- if they hauled me away

chorus

Rock-a-bye baby -- when you wake up
and you look outside -- will you see through the stuff
will you breathe real heavy -- with your gas mask on
with no birds singin' -- on your grey front lawn
will you scratch your head -- will you wonder why
and what they were thinkin' - in the days gone by
who were the leaders -- who were these men
and mommy & daddy - did they vote for them

chorus

Rock-a-bye baby -- here we go
there's nothin' to feel -- nothin' to know
there's no sound comin' from the saxophone
no Bible readings at the break of dawn
no God, no country, no forever friend
no enemy waitin' around the band
no parking tickets -- no judge to see
no bills to pay -- but nothin's free
there's no hands makin' the sign of the cross
there's nothin' to lose -- 'cause it's all been lost.

chorus
