Good evening friends   Better come gather round here on this Sabbath Sunday   Come on and slap your hands   There's a hot wind and it's blowing through our town   After the storm, after the fire   Don't teach your boys to kill   And when is the storm?   When is the fire?   When all your women are still   I say when all your women are still   Curse it hard, curse it good   Make a lesson and nail its hide to the neighborhood   I say curse it hard, curse it good   Make a lesson and nail its hide to the neighborhood   Neighborhood   And I took a blanket   And I wrapped it around her, around her sweet old head   Down in the river, that's where I found her   Now pretty soon now she's going to be dead   So after the storm, after the fire   Don't teach your boys to kill   Hear me, when is the storm?   When is the fire?   When all your women are still   I say when all your women are still   So curse it hard, curse it good   Make a lesson and nail its hide to the neighborhood   Curse it hard, curse it good   Make a lesson and nail its hide to the neighborhood   Hear me, neighborhood   Neighborhood   Good evening friends   Better come gather round here on this Sabbath Sunday   Come on and slap your hands   There's a hot wind and it's blowing through our town   After the storm, after the fire   Don't teach your boys to kill   When is the storm?   When is the fire?   When all your women are still   So curse it hard, curse it good   Make a lesson and nail its hide to the neighborhood   Hear me spank it hard, spank it good   Make a lesson and nail its hide to the neighborhood   I say neighborhood   In my neighborhood   Neighborhood
