作词 : Miller | |
I was down in nashville just payin' my dues | |
Headed for ohio when i read the news | |
'bout the people demonstrating 'gainst the president's views | |
Four were shot down by the national guard troops | |
Just like uncle sam i put on my fighting shoes | |
School shot down cause there's no more to lose | |
Now we're headed to d.c. two by twos | |
Cause those low down, profound, killin' four blues | |
Lookin' for my congressman to make it well known | |
But the politicians already won't answer his telephone | |
Making in his office while they're shooting kids down at home | |
Worried about the voters but he won't be worried long | |
Silent majority still glued to the tube | |
Say cia ain't lookin', fbi come unglued | |
Shot some more in jackson just to show the world what they can do | |
While we're marching to d.c. cause there's too much to do | |
Give peace a chance | |
Give peace a chance | |
There's no turnin' back my friend | |
There's no turnin' back | |
When the president said that the tear gas is gone | |
The army's pulled out leavin' blood on the ground | |
The streets are empty and the crying's died down | |
You can be president if no one's around | |
Just like kow kow, you've heard it before | |
Get back gangster, don't you open that door | |
Space cowboy's back to tell you the score | |
Nothing any good is gonna come from a war | |
Got those low down, profound, killin' four blues | |
Give peace a chance | |
Give peace a chance | |
Give peace a chance |
