NOTE: This is a different version than the one on the "Third World Warrior" album. I think it's in a different key, and I know it has different lyrics. It's a bit more contemporary than the original version. INTRO: Rightious killin' in the name of freedom We been down that sorry road before They let us hang around a little longer than we should've It's too late to fool us anymore We've seen the ones who kill the ones with vision Cold blooded murder right before your eyes Today they hold the power and the money and the guns It's gettin' hard to listen to their lies And I just gotta wonder what my woulda done If he'd seen the way they'd turned his dream around I gotta go by what he told me Try to tell the truth and stand your ground Don't let the bastards get ya down (SPOKEN) Bombin' Bagdad back into the stone age, 'round the clock Non-stop for 40 days, killed 'em in their homes and on their highways Now after a decade of cripplin' sanctions we're talkin' about goin' back in there And doin' it all over again, fightin' terrorism CHORUS (Don't let the bastards get ya down) Don't let the bastards get ya down (Don't let the bastards get ya down) Don't let the bastards....get ya down
