You see it every day in every way
|
We all hear the same routines
|
They all say that it's okay
|
Just let us take care of everything
|
|
So we lay it on the line
|
|
Chorus:
|
Layin' it on the line, layin' it on the line
|
Layin' it all, right on the line
|
Just layin' it on the line, layin' it on the line
|
Layin' it all, we're livin on the front line
|
|
I can see it in the faces
|
We got trouble in the streets tonight
|
And power keeps us in our places
|
And it doesn't matter if you're left or right
|
|
You lay it on the line
|
|
Layin' it on the line, layin' it on the line
|
Just layin' it all, right on the line
|
Layin' it on the line, layin' it on the line
|
Layin' it all, right on the line
|
|
Take it to the wilderness
|
Into the jungle sun
|
Lookin' for the voice of reason
|
Inside this Babylon
|
|
(Guitar solo)
|
|
Got U.S. boys on foreign soil
|
Spillin' their blood to keep the peace
|
Cities will vanish in turmoil
|
While the sheiks lay sleepin' on the beach
|
|
We lay it on the line
|
|
Layin' it on the line, layin' it on the line
|
Layin' it all, right on the line
|
Just layin' it on the line, layin' it on the line
|
Layin' it all, right on the line
|
Layin' it on the line
|
Just layin' it all
|
Layin' it on the line
|
Just layin' it all
|
