SINS OF THE FATHER lyrics

----------
  printable copy of the lyrics to SINS OF THE FATHER 
Once upon a time
And not so long ago
When things were much more simple
And time would travel slow
There came a righteous stranger
With a bible in his hand
To educate the sinners
And liberate their land

Not the lyrics to "SINS OF THE FATHER" ?, Please report that below.
CHORUS
The sins of the fathers
Are visited from old
In a never ending circle
Of people bought & sold
So the wretched of the earth
Will huddle from the cold
As the ship of fools goes sailing
On an ocean black as gold

Is this song NOT from WHO YOU FIGHTING FOR? (2005) ? Would you report that?
So come & sit beside me
And let my tale unfold
Of a land of milk & honey
Where the truth must not be told
As men of rhyme & reason
Let the devil take their soul
For greed & fame & fortune
And a river black as gold

If you can not find the lyrics you want, You may want to request them.

And all the non-believers
Were hiding from the light
As a thousand burning crosses
Were scattered in the night
The thieves & the vagabonds
Were sinking in the sand
As the righteous lord & master
Stretches out a helping hand

Anything wrong with the lyrics to "SINS OF THE FATHER" on this page, Would you please report that ?
And those who had to suffer
The sick, the young, the old
Were sacrificed to fortune
And left out in the cold
So in this new arrangement
The leaders sold their soul
For bangles, beads & baubles
And a river black as gold
