The Weeping Song - 2010 Remastered Version

Go son, go down to the water
 And see the women weeping there
 Then go up into the mountain
 The men, they are weeping too
 Father, why are all the women weeping?
 They are all weeping for their men
 Then, why are all the men they are weeping?
 They are weeping back at them
 ♪
 This is a weeping song
 A song in which to weep
 While all the men and women sleep
 This is a weeping song
 But I won't be weeping long
 ♪
 Father, why are all the children weeping?
 Or they are merely crying, son?
 Oh, are they merely crying, father?
 Yes, true weeping is yet to come
 ♪
 This is a weeping song
 A song in which to weep
 While all the little children sleep
 This is a weeping song
 But I won't be weeping long
 ♪
 Oh father, tell me, are you weeping?
 Your face seems it's wet to touch
 Oh then, I'm so sorry, father
 I never thought I hurt you so much
 This is a weeping song
 A song in which to weep
 While we rock ourselves to sleep
 This is a weeping song
 But I won't be weeping long
 No, I won't be weeping long
 No, I won't be weeping long
 No, I won't be weeping long
