18th Day
Don McGlashan

Steam ship's coming

Through the big grey seas

On the landing, people standing

You can see a man leaning on the rail

Could that be him? It looks like him



Like an electric charge along a wire

Like a spark flying up from a fire

The rumours going round



On the 18th day

Our land will be watered

On the 18th Day

Four our sons and ours daughters



They tore down the village

They burnt our crops

But when the prophets return


New seeds will be sown

Those who oppress us

Will be made to look small

We will stand together

Under the white feather



Like an electric charge along a wire

Like a spark flying up from a fire

The rumours going round



On the 18th day

Our land will be watered

On the 18th Day

Four our sons and ours daughters
