lyrics

What’s your country done for you now
Is it making you feel that you just don’t count
Even if you know your way around
You better watch out when the sun goes down

Bankers lawyers collecting their fares
While the sick and diseased are left to despair
Each of us knows what another can’t bear
Being cheated and lied to treated unfairly

Sometimes I wonder if everyone sang loud as they could at the top of their range
All of the glass would come shattering down
To litter the streets of this American town

What’s it take for some folks to see
What it’s like to have never been free
Watching you waiting for one little slip
Do you know what it’s like to be treated like this

Sometimes I wonder…

Rivers of blood have begun to flow
Each of us caught in the undertow
The hardest rain has yet to fall
When high on the hill there’s a clarion call

Sometimes I wonder if everyone sang loud as they could at the top of their range
All of the glass would come shattering down
To litter the streets of this American town
