(John Stewart)
|
They told me doncha go down to that city. Don't you go down to that city, I say.
|
For there's trouble there for sure and it's no concern of yours and it's all I have to hear them people say.
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
If you don't look around, you won't see my a-goin', see me a-goin' that way.
|
If you don't look around, you'll have no way of knowin'. I don't think you even know what I say.
|
|
And I saw children just walkin' 'long and singin' when a voice from behind me rang through.
|
Then I saw an ugly man with a mad dog in his hand. He said, "Stand right there. I'll turn him loose on you."
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
So don't tell me there ain't no time for singin' 'cause I don't need no empty words from you.
|
If they're sayin' who ain't free then they're sayin' it right to me. So, go back home. I'll wake you when we're through.
|
|
[Chorus]
