Protest Song

Loaded guns won’t stop us
False threats won’t shock us
Protest songs gonna rock us all night long
Riots in San Fransisco where the workers are dying
Need something to drown my pain
When I hear my mother crying
I know the end is coming soon
Race against the clock danger looms
Just want to make one thing sure
Don’t ever stop believing
It’s my home, my country, land of freedom
But now she’s bleeding
How many times have I been burned
By politics and lies
War has been sold here and returned
Under bombed out skies
Don’t need to hide the truth it’s over
The train has rolled away
Polished disaster it’s hard to imagine
Life in a different way
Now it’s getting late and we can’t go home
Don’t ever forget the common man
The working man the blue collar man he’s a fighting man
