Lyrics

you poisoned my sweet water
you cut down my green trees
the food you fed my children
was the cause of their disease
my world is slowly falling down
and the airs not good to breathe
and those of us who care enough
we hope to do something
ohh ooh what you gunna do about me?
ohh ooh what you gunna do about me?
your newspapers, they just put you out
they never tell you the whole story
they just put your young ideas down
i was wondering, could this be the end
of your pride and glory?
oh ooh what you gunna do about me?
oh ooh what you gunna do about me?
i work in your factories
i study in your schools
i fill your penitentiaries
and your military too
and i feel the future trembling
as the word is passed around
if you stand up for what you do believe
be prepared to be shot down
oh ooh what you gunna do about me?
oh ooh what you gunna do about me?
and i feel like a stranger
in the land where i was born
and i live like an outlaw
and im always on the run
and im always getting busted
and i got to take a stand
i believe the revolution
must be mighty close at hand
oh ooh what you gunna do about me?
oh ooh what you gunna do about me?
i smoke marijuana
but i can’t get behind your wars
and most of what i do believe
is against most of your laws
im a fugitive from injustice
but im going to be free
cos your rules and regulations
heh, they don’t do a thing for me
oh ooh what you gunna do about me?
oh ooh what you gunna do about me?
and i feel like a stranger
in the land where i was born
and i live just like an outlaw
and im always on the run
and though you maybe stronger now
my time will come around
you keep adding to my numbers
as you shoot my people down
oh ohh what about me?(oh ooh what you gunna do about me?)
come on oohhh about me (oh ooh what you gunna do about me?)
and i said (oh ooh what you gunna do about me?)
i wanna know (oh ooh what you gunna do about me?)
and what about me now (oh ooh what you gunna do about me?)
oh ooh what you gunna do about me?
i ain’t looking for no trouble baby
no trouble, but.
