Barbwire Fence 歌詞

They took the coal from the mountains, ripped the fruit from the soil Pulled the fish from the sea, drained the earth of its oil Took the Christ out of Christmas, pulled the sun from the sky Their daddies told them to never ask why The barbwire fence is gettin' higher and higher We're gettin' ready to fight fire with fire It's gettin' so there ain't a kind word said But we gotta keep movin' on, pushin' on ahead They led a blind man to a cliff, gave a crippled man a kick Took a poor man to the cleaners and a rich man has his pick Gave a three piece man a job, took an old man to a whore Sent a young boy to a place he ain't never been before The barbwire fence is gettin' higher and higher We're gettin' ready to fight fire with fire It's gettin' so there ain't a kind word said But we gotta keep movin' on, pushin' on ahead Well if they force me to reason, if they ask me to doubt I'll fuss then baby and fight ‘em baby, ow East wind is blowin' and a full moon is high There's just no purpose, there's no reason why The barbwire fence is gettin' higher and higher We're gettin' ready to fight fire with fire It's gettin' so there ain't a kind word said But we gotta keep movin' on, pushin' on ahead
