Richie Havens - The Minstrel from Gaul Lyrics
Official




A minstrel came down from Gaul, with scores of tales to tell
Some of them were false, yet some of them were true
Some of them we knew
Yet, some we knew too well
It was told in fire, yes, it was told in ice
It was told so many times, many more than twice

A soldier came down from Diem Bien Phu, with silence in his eyes
He told of many a night when fire was the sky
He told of many a morning when the bravest of men would cry
Knowing, that through Satan's earthbound magic
Many more would have to die
Many more would have to die (have to die, yeah)
Many more would have to die
Many more would have to die (have to die, yeah)

A man came down from Sinai Mountain
With words of truth for us all
How we bowed and knelt down
How we worshipped well
When it came to listening
We listened, but little, if at all
If at all
If at all
