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



Back in Algiers, my darling broke my heart

But he can't seem to break down this wall

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

And 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



Down in Opelousas, dogs are at the gate,

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



Somewhere in Louisiana my sugar's doing time

But he can't spend time with me

If he could get over this wall he'd see

That 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



Concrete and barbed wire, concrete and barbed wire

It's only made of concrete and barbed wire
