Paul Slade - LONELY NIGHT Lyrics

I sat and watched the lonely night go by,
A morning paper burned to keep me dry,
Then in the east I saw a new Sun rise,
But the east, it seems so far away, there they say,
Man's losing his rights to be a free and living care free man,
Free to live upon a promised land, and,
A child is born to hold a gun in hand,
Not a thought for understanding love
God above

Come down if you can.

Not far from home there was a bloody day,
Between the English and the I.R.A.
Both think they're right in what they're fighting for,
And that's a country for today, where they say,
Man's free with his rights to be a free and living care free man,
Free to live on undivided land and,
A kid is born to hold a gun in hand,
Not a thought for understanding love,
God above
Come down if you're there.

Took a trip and saw the U.S.A.
Gotta say it was a beautiful place,
'till I took a look at New York Town,
People passed as a man was kicked down,
What has happened to the World today ?
Where's the love we talked of yesterday?
I can't say,
I believe in God, no, oh no ...
