Lyrics Public Life - Benjamín Walker, Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson Original Cast

Public Life

So I see where two roads divide
The public man when his wife has died
And just when everything I wanted was within my grasp
The irony
Yeah, the irony is killing me
This public life…
No private life…
And to my wife I make this one last vow:
I’ll give my life to the people now
I’ll be the man they need
The one to lead a generation!
I’ll listen to their voice
With every choice
As we transform this nation
Oh
I’ll keep on going
Oh
I’ll keep on going
Oh
I’ll keep on going
I gotta be that guy
It’s time to be that guy!
I’m gonna take this country back!
There’s nothing left
In this old town
Pick up your life
And move it around
You’ve got to get down to D. C
Pick up your rifle
And make a stand!
The change is coming now!
Do you feel it?
It’s coming on now
It’s coming on now!
There’s nothing left
In this old town
Pick up your life
And move it around!
You’ve got to get down to D.C.,
Pick up your rifle
And make a stand!
Jackson’s back!
He’s got it goin' on!
Jackson’s back!
He’s got it goin' on!
Jackson’s back!
He’s got it goin' on!
Jackson’s back!
He’s got it goin' on!
This is what we’ve been waiting for!
The trail was always leading to this door.
Populism, yea, yea!
Populism, yea, yea!
Populism, yea, yea!
