Sixteen Ways lyrics

16 kids 16 ways They shot my babies by mistake I'm all alone on a midnight ride My 16 kids all have died Chorus They ain't coming back It's too late They shot my babies but They killed my faith I haven't slept in 14 days Now it's time to barricade Myself in these four walls My 16 kids all are gone Chorus I worked so hard for 40 years I told myself I had nothing to fear Then one by one they got shot down The youngest one held a gun to his ear Chorus
