Jackson-Kent Blues

I was down in Nashville just payin` my duesHeaded for Ohio when I read the news`Bout the people demonstrating `gainst the President`s viewsFour were shot down by the National Guard troopsJust like Uncle Sam I put on my fighting shoesSchool shot down cause there`s no more to loseNow we`re headed to D.C. two by twosCause those low down, profound, killin` four blues Lookin` for my Congressman to make it well knownBut the politicians already won`t answer his telephoneMaking in his office while they`re shooting kids down at homeWorried about the voters but he won`t be worried long Silent majority still glued to the tubeSay CIA ain`t lookin`, FBI come ungluedShot some more in Jackson just to show the world what they can doWhile we`re marching to D.C. cause there`s too much to do Give peace a chanceGive peace a chanceThere`s no turnin` back my friendThere`s no turnin` back When the President said that the tear gas is goneThe army`s pulled out leavin` blood on the groundThe streets are empty and the crying`s died downYou can be President if no one`s aroundJust like Kow Kow, you`ve heard it beforeGet back gangster, don`t you open that doorSpace Cowboy`s back to tell you the scoreNothing any good is gonna come from a warGot those low down, profound, killin` four blues Give peace a chanceGive peace a chanceGive peace a chance
