Lyrics:

Go Son, Go Down To The Water
and See The Women Weeping There
then Go Up Into The Mountains
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 There 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
they Are Merely Crying Son
o, 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

o Father Tell Me, Are You Weeping
your Face Seems Wet To Touch
o 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
but I Won't Be Weeping Long
but I Won't Be Weeping Long
but I Won't Be Weeping Long
