Phil Ochs
I cried when they shot Medgar Evers
Tears ran down my spine
And I cried when they shot Mr. Kennedy
As though I`d lost a father of mine
But Malcolm X got what was coming
He got what he asked for this time
So love me, love me, love me, I`m a liberal
I go to the civil rights rallies
And I put down the old D.A.R.
I love Harry and Sidney and Sammy
I hope every colored boy becomes a star
But don`t talk about revolution
That`s going a little bit too far
So love me, love me, love me, I`m a liberal
I cheered when Humphrey was chosen
My faith in the system restored
And I`m glad that the commies were thrown out
From the A.F.L. C.I.O. board
And I love Puerto Ricans and Negros
As long as they don`t move next door
So love me, love me, love me, I`m a liberal
Ah, the people of old Mississippi
Should all hang their heads in shame
Now I can`t understand how their minds work
What`s the matter don`t they watch Les Crain?
But if you ask me to bus my children
I hope the cops take down your name
So love me, love me, love me, I`m a liberal
Yes, I read New Republic and Nation
I`ve learned to take every view
You know, I`ve memorized Lerner and Golden
I feel like I`m almost a Jew
But when it comes to times like Korea
There`s no one more red, white and blue
So love me, love me, love me, I`m a liberal
I vote for the democratic party
They want the U.N. to be strong
I attend all the Pete Seeger concerts
He sure gets me singing those songs
And I`ll send all the money you ask for
But don`t ask me to come on along
So love me, love me, love me, I`m a liberal
Sure, once I was young and impulsive
I wore every conceivable pin
Even went to socialist meetings
Learned all the old union hymns
Ah, but I`ve grown older and wiser
And that`s why I`m turning you in
So love me, love me, love me, I`m a liberal
