Spirit Of '76 |
| It’s the hottest summer anyone can remember |
| Everybody knows something’s gonna start |
| This fella sings with a hundred and one reasons |
| For you to give him the keys, the keys to your heart |
| Guitars crash land in flames from hell |
| With bullets for rich or poor |
| A voice rings out like a bell |
| Cutting trough the chaos of hate and war |
| Back to basics, guitar picks, drumsticks — spirit of ‘76 |
| Sceptics, slapsticks, limericks and plastics — spirit of ‘76 |
| Convicts, ethnics, mavericks and beatniks — spirit of ‘76 |
| Psychics, mystics, politics and con tricks — spirit of ‘76 |
| While Mister Nasty makes enemies of new statesmen |
| And others jam with soul but nothing new |
| And Yankee cars play the same old, on the stereo |
| He walks up to the mike and he shows us what to do |
| Music like this can kick down doors |
| Dressed in rags with style |
| They don’t believe the truth no more |
| A white riot leaves them bleeding in the aisles |
| Back to Basics, guitar picks, drumsticks — spirit of ‘76 |
| Sceptics, slapsticks, limericks and plastics — spirit of ‘76 |
| Convicts, ethnics, mavericks and beatniks — spirit of ‘76 |
| Psychics, mystics, politics and con tricks — spirit of ‘76 |
| And nothing’s gonna be the same again |
| Said nothing’s gonna be the same again |
| Music like this can kick down doors |
| Dressed in rags with style |
| They don’t believe the truth no more |
| A white riot leaves them bleeding in the aisles |
