Lyrics West Memphis Moon - Chuck Prophet
Yellow
tape
along
the
river′s
edge
Helicopters
circling
overhead
Three
little
boys
coming
home
from
school
Gone
forever
'neath
the
Memphis
moon
Well,
the
sheriff
jumped
on
me,
yes,
he
did
Leaned
on
me
till
I
cried
and
beg
I
cried
for
my
mother,
never
felt
so
alone
The
dawn
was
breaking
and
my
will
was
gone
They
said,
"There′s
two
more
boys
where
you
came
from
You'll
implicate
them
both
before
we're
done
We
want
that
Echols
boy
with
the
moody
eyes
He
and
that
peach
faced
kid
by
his
side"
The
trial
was
over
soon
as
it
begun
The
truth
still
buried
out
there
in
the
mud
Father
forgive
me,
hear
what
I
say
Father
forgive
this
walking
razor
blade
Three
more
boys
who
should
be
back
in
school
Gone
forever
′neath
the
Memphis
moon
(Really
gone)
A
flicker
of
hope,
a
drop
of
light
Mothers
arms
reaching
in
the
night
