I hear it still, thou shall not kill
When did they mean that, momma?
I'm way out here and I'm in fear
Pray for us momma

Here he comes, he's got a gun
They say that he's my enemy
Ain't it funny, momma?
He looks a lot like me

I see in his eyes
Why he's just a boy
Momma he ain't no man
Can't I kill
Do you think I can?

I hear it still, thou shall not kill
When did they mean that, momma?
I hear it still, thou shall not kill
Hmm, oh momma
