lyrics
I came upon a child of god he was walking
Along the road and I asked him where are you going
And he told me
He told me
The child of God I came upon he was walking
He was walking
Along the road and I asked him where are you going
And he told me
To God I swore I’d fight his war
In again out again down again up you and you
Jigabe Argabo
Gigajaby Ahjio, ah ah
10,000 miles away I sit and I watch him
Wonderin’ if his Father he forgot him
And he told me
He told me
The children of god I came upon they were walking
They were walking
Off to war and I asked them why are they going
And they told me
When we were born God was gone
In again out again down again up you and you
Jigabe Argabo
Gigajaby Ahjio, ah ah
Can you feel the thinking in your head you
Wonder if your children will forget you
When you use the bomb used once in a lifetime
Even if they’ll forgive you
The reason it was used will they forget too?
Jigaby Argabo
