Words and music by Leonard Cohen
and Anjani Thomas
Some people say
It s what we deserve
For sins against g-d
For crimes in the world
I wouldn t know
I m just holding the fort
Since that day
They wounded New York
Some people say
They hate us of old
Our women unveiled
Our slaves and our gold
I wouldn t know
I m just holding the fort
But answer me this
I won t take you to court
Did you go crazy
Or did you report
On that day
On that day
They wounded New York
