Harrison "Professor" Stafford - East Jerusalemn Acoustic @Paris 7 Mai 2011

Harrison Stafford live in Paris for a showcase, Madness.

Here, an wonderful acoustic version of "East Jerusalem":

East Jerusalem is cold at night
East Jerusalem is cold at night
Jerusalem is cold at night
We dream of home

Give all you got man and don't look back
Winner take all and that's a fact
I hope you are alright with that
We want a home

Politician they don't run I
Do all they could still they can't surmise
How the people have lost their minds
In need of home

(Bridge)
When will we see equality?
will there ever be true democracy?
will man find his resting place?
A rock of safety for each race?

(verse)
Speak your mind and be proud of that
Oh Palestine, I dream of that
You made up like a diplomate
Bailing in the street near your home

By candle light man we read and write
Each rainy night for an equal right
Watching our word turn into physical fight
Telling you to leave us alone

East Jerusalem is cold at night
East Jerusalem is cold at night
Jerusalem is cold at night
We want a home

(Bridge)
What is this economy?
If all is for you what is left for me?
Where will we find the fire light?
To keep us warm, to keep us thinking right.

Jew and gentle shall come to pass
Upon the Earth man they ever last
Israel walks in the future and past
From Abraham to Rome

Lebanon, Jordan, and Syrian fast
for the feast that will come to pass
Isaac and Ishmael are neighbors at last
Celebration of "home"

East Jerusalem is cold at night
East Jerusalem is cold at night
Jerusalem is cold at night
We dream of home

Un jour on fera pareil avec les arabes en France. On leur demandera des papiers pour les maisons qu'ils ont achete, et on leur demandera la preuve que leurs grand parents etaient francais pour pouvoir la garder. Je souhaite que ça n'arrive à personne en France. God Bless people, whoever it is!!
