Met myself a Dcommon C county welfare Gline
I was a-feelin' Cstrung out, Ghung out on the Dline
GSaw myself a-Dgoin' Em down to the war in CJune
GAll I want, Dall I want is to Cwrite myself a Gtune
C Wrote a song forG everyone
C Wrote a song for Gtruth
C Wrote a song for GeveryoneEm--
When I Ccouldn't even D7talk to Gyou
Got myself arrested, wound me up in jail
Richmond 'bout to blow up, communication fails
If you see the answer, now's the time to say
All I want, all I want is to get you down to pray
chorus
(instrumental, same pattern as verses)
chorus
Saw the people standin' a thousand years in chains
Somebody said it's a-different now; look, it's just the same
Pharaohs spin the message round and round the truth
They could have saved a million people, how can I tell you?
(repeat chorus 3 times; third time, with extra measure and instrumental
break, sing "cou-ou-ou-ou-ouldn't")
