Textes et Paroles de Song for the SOA #2

Well I pulled up there at the gateHad to come and keep a dateWith ten thousand of my friendsHere to right some wrongs and make amendsFolks came in buses, bikes and carsWith voices, fiddles and guitarsAll kinds of people, shapes and stylesBurned those frequent flyer milesFirst thing I see's a singing nunAt the frisky age of ninety-oneShe's here fresh out of jailTold the judge "I ain't got no bailI'm bearing witness right here and now'Cause we've got to change the world somehowSo with you all right here I prayWe'll shut down the SOA"There's this year's crop from OberlinAnd there's the folks from Warren-WilsonBut they're not all eighteen to twenty-twoThey brought along their neighbors tooThere's grandpa, baby, mom and dadAn ARA kid, fighting madWhat are we gonna do today?We'll shut down the SOAThere's some in pink, some in blackThere's one wrapped in a coffee sackThere's t-shirts, stickers, pins and moreSaying we don't want your oil warThere's a labor lawyer from Walla WallaWith some Mayan folks from GuatemalaSee, north and south the people sayWe'll shut down the SOAPouring blood, crossing linesHolding crosses, making signsThere's priests and punks in groups and pairsAlong with a gang in wheelchairsThere's Josh and Abi, Bill and SueCharlie, Tao and you know whoGiant puppets, paper-mâchéSayin' we'll shut down the SOAYes, we'll keep coming to this townTil this torture school's shut downThen we'll march as we intoneYou do not walk aloneTo the next symbol in our sightsIn the global fight for human rightsBut for now we're here in this Georgia claySayin' we'll shut down the SOA
