Death To My Hometown by Bruce Springsteen
No cannonballs did fly
No rifles cut us down
No bombs fell from the sky
No blood (1)____________ the ground
No powder flash (2)______________ the eye
No deafening thunder sounded
But just as sure as the hand of god
They brought death to my hometown
They brought death to my hometown
No shells (3)____________ the evening sky
No cities burning down
No armies stormed the shores for which we’d die
No dictators were crowned
High off on a (4)__________ night
I never heard a sound
The marauders raided in the dark and brought death to my hometown, boys
Death to my hometown
They destroyed our families’ factories and they took our homes
They (5)________ our bodies on the plains
The vultures picked our bones
So listen up, my Sonny boy
Be ready for when they come
For they’ll be returning sure as the rising sun
Now get yourself a song to sing and (6)________ it ’til you’re done
Yeah, sing it hard and (7)________ it well
Send the robber baron’s (8)________________ to hell
The greedy thieves that came around
And ate the flesh of everything they’ve found
Whose crimes (9)________ gone unpunished now
Walk the streets as free men now
And they brought (10)__________ to our hometown, boys
Death to our hometown, boys
Death to our hometown, boys
Death to our hometown
No rifles cut us down
No bombs fell from the sky
No blood (1)____________ the ground
No powder flash (2)______________ the eye
No deafening thunder sounded
But just as sure as the hand of god
They brought death to my hometown
They brought death to my hometown
No shells (3)____________ the evening sky
No cities burning down
No armies stormed the shores for which we’d die
No dictators were crowned
High off on a (4)__________ night
I never heard a sound
The marauders raided in the dark and brought death to my hometown, boys
Death to my hometown
They destroyed our families’ factories and they took our homes
They (5)________ our bodies on the plains
The vultures picked our bones
So listen up, my Sonny boy
Be ready for when they come
For they’ll be returning sure as the rising sun
Now get yourself a song to sing and (6)________ it ’til you’re done
Yeah, sing it hard and (7)________ it well
Send the robber baron’s (8)________________ to hell
The greedy thieves that came around
And ate the flesh of everything they’ve found
Whose crimes (9)________ gone unpunished now
Walk the streets as free men now
And they brought (10)__________ to our hometown, boys
Death to our hometown, boys
Death to our hometown, boys
Death to our hometown
