Behind The Wall Lyrics by Gotham

Pass The Butter

1972

[Verse 1]
There's a train that's gettin' near
It's bringing back the woman that I love so dear
It's comin' here
She's been away so long
Her living must be strong to carry on and on
Send her home
[Chorus]
Twelve years ago, yeah
In early fall
And taken down behind the wall
And I, I need
[Verse 2]
A cold and stormy night
That woman, she was taken far away from sight
And she said that night
"My love, we must not hate
Will soon our prayers be answered, it's no longer fate
It's love, not hate"
[Chorus]
Twelve years ago, yeah
In early fall
Takеn down behind the wall, yeah
And oh, oh, hеy
[Verse 3]
We were happy in our home
In the countryside, yeah
And how we waited for that day to come
When we would hear
A newborn baby cry
[Verse 2]
On a cold and stormy night
My woman, she was taken far away from sight
And she said that night
"My love, we must not hate
And soon our prayers be answered, it's no longer fate
It's love, not hate"
[Chorus]
Twelve years ago
A count so tall
I never seen that
She's coming back, behind the wall
Please, send my woman back [?], yeah
And I need my baby, yeah
Please, send her back
I've been needing my woman
