Death To My Hometown by Bruce Springsteen

No cannonballs did fly
No rifles cut us down
No bombs fell from the sky
No blood soaked the ground
No powder flash blinded the eye
No deafening thunder sounded
But just as sure as the hand of god
They brought (1)__________ to my hometown
They brought death to my hometown

No shells ripped the (2)______________ sky
No cities burning down
No armies stormed the shores for which we’d die
No dictators were crowned
High off on a quiet night
I (3)__________ 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 left our bodies on the plains
The vultures picked our bones

So (4)____________ up, my Sonny boy
Be ready for when they come
For they’ll be returning sure as the (5)____________ sun

Now get yourself a song to sing and sing it ’til you’re done
Yeah, sing it hard and sing it well
(6)________ the robber baron’s straight to hell
The (7)____________ thieves that (8)________ 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
