Sixteen Ways
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
16 kids 16 ways
They shot my babies by mistake
I'm all alone on a midnight ride
My 16 kids all have died
Chorus
They ain't coming back
It's too late
They shot my babies but
They killed my faith
I haven't slept in 14 days
Now it's time to barricade
Myself in these four walls
My 16 kids all are gone
Chorus
I worked so hard for 40 years
I told myself I had nothing to fear
Then one by one they got shot down
The youngest one held a gun to his ear
Chorus
