George Jackson

I woke up this morning, Tears were in my bed
 They killed a man I really loved, Shot him in the head
 Lord, Lord they cut George Jackson down
 Lord, Lord they laid him in the ground
 They sent him off to prison, For a seventy dollar robbery
 They closed the door behind him, And threw away the key
 Lord, Lord they cut George Jackson down
 Lord, Lord they laid him in the ground
 Lord, Lord they cut George Jackson down
 Lord, Lord they laid him in the ground
 Say it believe it
 Lord, Lord they laid him in the ground
 He didn't take shit from no one, He wouldn't bow down on his knee
 Authorities they hate him, Because he was just too real, just too real
 Lord, Lord they cut George Jackson down
 Lord, Lord they laid him in the ground
 The prison guard they watched him, They crushed him like a bug
 Frightened of his power, They we scared of all his love and hey hey!
 Lord, Lord they laid him in the ground
 Sometimes I think the whole wide world
 Is one big prison yard
 Where some of us are prisoners and
 Some of us are guards. Yeah Hey!

 I want to confess, There is no justice
 Lift up your voices, In times of protest
