Don't Let the Bastards Get You Down - Kris Kristofferson

Theyre killing babies in the name of freedom

Weve been down that sorry road before

They let us hang around a little longer than they should have

And its too late to fool us anymore

Weve seen the ones who killed the ones with vision

Cold-blooded murder right before your eyes

Today they hold the power and the money and the guns

Its getting hard to listen to their lies.

And Ive just got to wonder what my daddy wouldve done

If hed seen the way they turned his dream around

Ive got to go by what he told me, try to tell the truth

And stand your ground

Dont let the bastards get you down

Mining roads

Killing farmers

Burning down schools full of children

Fighting communism

And Ive just got to wonder what my daddy wouldve done

If hed seen the way they turned his dream around

Ive got to go by what he told me, try to tell the truth

And stand your ground

Dont let the bastards get you down
