On Palastine

Lyrics

That stormy morning
 Felt like a dream
 He told me then
 Of what he'd seen
 A child a man
 In times gone bad
 Faces of stone
 Lined hard and sad
 One Sunday day
 They all came home
 All that they had
 Was burned and gone
 The timber men
 Their pistols gleamed
 A lifetime lost
 On Palastine
 He made a stand
 He would not run
 He dropped the hoe
 And picked up the gun
 And then one night
 He disappeared
 It fed the worst
 Of all their fears
 They found him quiet
 High in a tree
 He flew away
 From Palastine
 Then came the day
 They moved away
 More gunmen came
 They could not stay
 To Glen St. Mary
 To Olustee
 But we still dream
 Of Palastine
