Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young - 49 Bye-Byes/America's Children songtekst

Je score:


Stephen Stills 



  



Forty nine reasons all in a line 



All of them good ones, all of them lies 



Drifting with my lady, we're oldest of friends 



Need a little work and there's fences to mend 



  



Steady girl, she was my world 



Till the drifter come, now she's gone 



I let that man play his hand 



I let them go, how was I to know 



I'm down on my knees, nobody left to please 



  



Now it's over, they left in the spring 



Her and the drifter, lookin' for beautiful things



 

And I want you to clap your hands



Awwww Come on and clap your hands everybody



Yeah all right yeah all right yeah

  

And a little bit louder now



A little bit louder now



And a little bit louder now



Yes and a little bit louder now



Oh, you know there's something happening here 



What it is ain't exactly clear 



Yes there's a man with a gun over there 



Telling me I got to be ware 



And we got to stop children, what's that sound 



Look what's going down 



Ahh look what's going down





All right



What a field day, what a heat 



Must have been a thousand people standing in the street 



Singing songs and carrying signs



Come on, mostly say "hurray for our side"



And we got to stop children, what's that sound 



Everybody look what's going down 



All right, what's going down ah yes



Well it looks to me like there's a few politicians hanging around children



Purpertating some kind of myth on us all all right



Taking bout what a drag all the kids are yeah aahh



Cause they got the guts to get out in the strees and tell the truth every day aahh yes



Making it a little hot for them, you know all right



But you know that we're all just out there proving to 



Richard Nixon and Spiro Agnew and Richard Dailey and all them other, 



well whatever you want to call them



That America is still the home of the brave oh yes it is



And you got to be brave children



How many is it that they shot down already?



Something like seventeen of us.



But you know we gotta do it 



We gotta keep on keeping on



Because if we don't do it nobody else is gonna



But you know if we can't do it with a smile on our face



You know if  we can't love in our hearts then children we ain't got no right to do it at all



Because it just means we ain't learned nothing yet



We're supposed to be some kind of different Ahhh



Whoa Whoa Whoa oh yes



And I don't know if I want white America to remember or to forget



That Jesus Christ was the first non-violent revolutionary



Dig it ohh Dig it ooh right on Dig it yeah





You know that paranoia it strikes deep



Into your life it's going to creep



And it starts when you're always afraid



Step out of line the man comes 



He's going to shoot you down





We've got to stop hey now what's that sound



Yeah we've got to stop and what's that sound yes



We've got to stop hey children what's that sound



What's going down oh yeah
