Lady Liberty and her Oil-drip I.V.
The barrel fire choir charmed the hearts of torn men
who could not speak out, for self well being to defend
it started with an idea, which sparked a conversation
that broke the race barrier for pure unification
James Earl Ray was an innocent man
hired, tried and killed by a much stronger hand
"Let the Alabama nigger talk about civil rights"
"let him speak of crimes commited in the hot southern nights"
"but if he starts into Memphis, not for race but class unity"
"we'll take him down then, before it provokes national mutiny"
the gap is grown wider, deeper and rough
that demolition crew dared you to call their bluff
open your mouth, your a suicide bomber
pay no attention to the Commander in Chief Oil farmer
they shined that bright light directly into your eyes
so your vision is too blurry to notice these great lies
send your sons and daughters into his personal crusade
another father dead, another dollar made
another country under fire, another evil seed
another day we stand by and watch our lady liberty bleed
