Time For You To Go
Words and music by Bob Menzies

Make me two trumpets of hammered silver
Use them for calling the battle cry
Blow me one trumpet for the priests and the ladies
Blow me one trumpet so the archers can fly

The black moon is rising and you still don’t know
That it’s time for you to go?

All you pilgrims are free to go
No one ever said you were a prisoner
Take your belongings and all that you owe
It’s the last time you’ll ask for forgiveness

The black moon is rising and you still don’t know
That it’s time for you to go?

You say we have choices, I’m not so sure
When the blood of my blood still has to endure
The fear of the crazy, the loss of the blame
I still remain certain we’re all the same

The black moon is rising and you still don’t know
That it’s time for you to go?

I look out my window every night
I see guns and rockets and knives and hatchets
I listen to the people as they fight
I’ve never heard such an awful racket

The black moon is rising and you still don’t know
That it’s time for you to go?

The black moon is rising and you still don’t know
That it’s time for you to go?

Time for you to go
Time for you to go
