[03:30.00]Nicholas invited me to visit at the farm
[03:30.00]We were playing in the yard,
[03:30.00]I saw them in the barn
[03:30.00]White and black together sat
[03:30.00]I just stood and stared
[03:30.00]How was I to know what it all meant?
[03:30.00](Verse)
[03:30.00]Mr. Goldreich and his wife were generous to me
[03:30.00]David in blue overalls came in to serve the tea
[03:30.00]I had seen him in the barn, something wasn鈥檛 right
[03:30.00]As I told my father late that night
[03:30.00](Chorus)
[03:30.00]So they came in a dry-cleaning van and they took them away, took them away
[03:30.00]One dog and a dozen strong men and they took them away, took them away
[03:30.00]On that Thursday according to plan
[03:30.00]They took them away in a dry-cleaning van
[03:30.00]I stood and watched by the side of the road
[03:30.00]How could I know?
[03:30.00]How could I know?
[03:30.00](Bridge)
[03:30.00]How was I to understand?
[03:30.00]How to make it right?
[03:30.00]As I ask our father every night
[03:30.00](Chorus)
[03:30.00]So they came in a dry-cleaning van and they took them away, took them away
[03:30.00]One dog and a dozen strong men and they took them away, took them away
[03:30.00]On that Thursday according to plan
[03:30.00]They took them away in a dry-cleaning van
[03:30.00]I stood and watched by the side of the road
[03:30.00]How could I know?
[03:30.00]How could I know?
