4 AM on a cold night |
|
I find myself, empty bottle in hand |
|
Out with a friend, we're singing alone |
|
About the things that are going wrong |
|
Singing out loud about this world |
|
The messed up life, the struggles we've fought |
|
I hear sirens, bright lights in my eyes |
|
Without warning, I've been attacked |
|
They grab me by the hair |
|
Then threw me against the wall |
|
They hit me in the back |
|
My ribs went pop |
|
They smashed me in the head |
|
It was as though as lead |
|
They kick me in the knee |
|
I started to bleed |
|
What the hell have I done? |
|
What the hell? |
|
I'm in the tombs tonight |
|
I took one in the eye, I wouldn't cry |
|
They punched me in the mouth, I started to shout |
|
I took one in the chin, I began to spin |
|
They started to laugh |
|
I decided to fight back! |
|
What the hell have I done? |
|
What the hell? |
|
I'm in the tombs tonight |
|
Drunk & disorderly is the ****ing charge |
|
We find ourselves behind these bars |
|
The only thing that we ever did wrong |
|
Was to sing this oppressed man's song! |
|
What the hell have I done? |
|
What the hell? |
|
I'm in the tombs tonight |
|
Now my life has been stamped |
|
My life, my future in their hands |
|
The only thing that I did wrong |
|
Was to sing this working man's song! |
|
1 2 |
|
Working man songs |
|
That's all we got |
|
Music from the heart |
|
Lyrics from the streets |
|
All my life, I've been stamped |
|
All my future in their hands |
|
What I did, nothing wrong |
|
Only singing a working man's song! |
|
You can take my money, never steal my pride |
|
You can try to copy it |
|
You'll never succeed |
