[Instrumental intro 0:00-1:48]
[Verse 1]
Oh well the sun go down
Celebration in the town tonight
All day long
They been slaughtering upon the stone
Share out the meat
Yeah, you really like to eat
[Chorus]
Come on woman
Come follow me home
[Verse 2]
Well, the priest he cries
Virgins ascending to the skies tonight
All day long
I have passed my time alone
And when the church bell rung
I stayed out on the tower
In a dying sun
[Chorus]
Now come on woman
Come follow me home
[Guitar solo]
[Verse 3]
Well I don't need no priest
But I love all of the people
Yes I share the feast
So drink up my wine
Yes and the song in my bones
I know the way
I can see by the moonlight
Clear as the day
[Chorus]
Come on woman
Come follow me home
