Tom Paxton - Intro To On The Road From Srebrenica Lyrics






Well, Short Shelf Life songs come and go. Sometimes topical songs aren’t so funny, and shouldn’t be so funny. Right out of the newspapers - I’ve been trying to write a song for the last year about Bosnia Herzegovina. And, the name that kept sticking with me was Srebrenica, the town that was - to me Srebrenica looked like Guernica from the Spanish civil war. It’s a town that was devastated by war, where the people were expelled brutally, murderously - and this is a song called ‘On The Road From Srebrenica’...

    Saw a picture of Tom Paxton playing the 12-string guitar. I never heard him play it, but I heard him play the 6-string.

    Tom Paxton can tear your heart out with his songs of war. This one is could be describing any war, anywear.

  5. A.... ....

    Serbs? Or the Serbian government? I will agree wholeheartedly that no government deserves to walk among the people, but don't think for a second that the people and the government are the same thing. Do you want to be held responsible for the actions abroad of your government?

    superhoga i'm glad serbs got what they asked for in 1999, god bless USA and NATO.

  9. p.... ....

    Blasting the shit out of Belgrade was a wonderful humanitarian act. Serbs have, by their obscene acts, forfeited their right to walk among humans for many generations.

    p.... ....

    I do respect Tom Paxton a lot he raised his voice against US invasion in Vietnam and in Iraq.
    However I understand your point of view as well , when it comes it US government , they choose the side that is more economical to them.

  10. H.... S....

    I was waiting for the bus this afternoon and I saw a woman holding a bag with the word Sarajevo. I didn't understand the rest of what was on the bag, but it reminded me of this song. God bless Tom Paxton.

    @superhoga - They were not alleged murderes of Bosnian muslims, they were murderes of Bosnian muslims. War is hell, there is not much more to say. Every single murder, every taken life is a crime.

    n.... ....

    I'm a pro-lifer ,too.

    n.... ....

    You would rather deranged people be allowed to kill as many as they like before right minded men and women assemble to remove them from the board?

  13. s.... ....

    Ironic that Clinton killed thousands of civilians to stop the alleged murder of Muslims while OBusha slaugters millions of muslims.

    s.... ....

    The slaughter at Srebenica is only 'alleged' to you?
    Really?
