Concrete And Barbed Wire

This wall divides us

We're on two different sides

But this wall is not real

How can it be real

It's only made of concrete and barbed wire

Concrete and barbed wire

Concrete and barbed wire

It's only made of concrete and barbed wire

Well, back in Algiers, my darlin' broke my heart

Can't seem to break down this wall

With two strong hands, he couldn't move it at all

It's only made of concrete and barbed wire

Concrete and barbed wire

Concrete and barbed wire

It's only made of concrete and barbed wire

Well, down in Opelousas, the dogs are at the gates

And they're mean, Lord, they're mean

There's a wall between us, but it's not what it seems

It's only made of concrete and barbed wire

Concrete and barbed wire

Concrete and barbed wire

It's only made of concrete and barbed wire

Well, somewhere in Louisiana, my sugar's doing time

He can't seem to spend time with me

If he could only get over this wall he would see

It's only made of concrete and barbed wire

Well, concrete and barbed wire

Concrete and barbed wire

It's only made of concrete and barbed wire

Concrete and barbed wire

Well, concrete and barbed wire

It's only made of concrete and barbed wire
